NASA scientists are actively engaged in discussions concerning global food security. Their unique expertise, often stemming from space exploration and Earth observation, provides valuable insights into this critical challenge.

These discussions likely explore how space-based technologies, such as satellite monitoring, can enhance agricultural practices, predict crop yields, and manage resources more effectively. Furthermore, research into sustainable food systems for long-duration space missions offers potential solutions applicable to terrestrial food production, addressing future food needs.

Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) documented the University of California, San Diego's (UCSD) microgrid, a leading example of a locally controlled electricity network interconnected with the larger grid. This system manages 42 megawatts of generating capacity, comprising a central cogeneration plant, solar photovoltaic installations, and a fuel cell utilizing natural gas reclaimed from a landfill.

RMI seeks to identify and amplify solutions capable of transforming the electricity system. Learn more about their work at http://www.rmi.org/electricity.

The "Race for American Jobs: Clean Energy Leadership" was a four-week, coast-to-coast virtual campaign by BICEP, in partnership with We Can Lead. It aimed to highlight the economic and job-creation benefits of national climate and energy legislation, advocating for investment in a low-carbon economy and establishing a carbon price.

The campaign engaged business leaders nationwide through events in Oregon, Colorado, Ohio, and New Hampshire, concluding in Washington on March 10. Each event featured panel discussions with major consumer brands and local clean economy entrepreneurs, contributing to thought leadership in Sustainability, Clean Tech, and Energy in 2010.

This jellyfish can grow as large as a school bus! During a deep-sea expedition led by @schmidtocean off the coast of Argentina, researchers discovered a rare phantom jellyfish.

Unlike many jellyfish, this species lacks tentacles and features four flattened arms that can exceed 30 feet in length, which may help it capture prey such as plankton and small fish.

The Canpac Valkyrie recently departed from Port Alberni, British Columbia, on a groundbreaking mission to identify plastic hotspots in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch using drones, AI, and modeling. The crew, including scientists and engineers from The Ocean Cleanup, aimed to create a "weather forecast" for plastic, guiding the ship through areas of high plastic density as part of their Smart Steering Strategy.

This video provides an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at six weeks of testing at sea, showcasing drone flights, environmental monitoring, and technology demonstrations. Highlights include successful plastic detection 2,400 km from land and insights into how their technologies work together. Stay updated by subscribing to their YouTube channel: YouTube.

Attacks on endangered wildlife are escalating, particularly following the Trump administration's dismantling of the Endangered Species Act. Key changes include the removal of the definition of "harm" related to habitat destruction and the end of automatic protections for newly listed species. This allows activities like logging and development to bypass crucial conservation requirements, potentially leading to increased wildlife deaths.

Additionally, the administration's "Extinction Committee" has granted exemptions to oil and gas operations, further endangering species like whales and sea turtles. Proposed congressional deals threaten to weaken wildlife reviews and hinder legal challenges against destructive projects. The Center for Biological Diversity is actively fighting these rollbacks in court. Support our efforts by donating and spreading the word.
