Guatemala's third largest export, coffee, thrives on the country's mountainous slopes. However, changing rainfall, rising temperatures, and a fungus called "coffee rust" threaten this vital crop

Guatemala's third largest export, coffee, thrives on the country's mountainous slopes. However, changing rainfall, rising temperatures, and a fungus called "coffee rust" threaten this vital crop and the livelihoods of indigenous farmers in the region.

Scientists believe they have found a way to ensure climate models are correct, which might help these farmers adapt. Filmmaker Mari Cleven interviews researchers Diego Pons and Kevin Anchukaitis about their work in the informative short film, "Climate Research Offers Coffee Farmers Hope For Their Crops."

This film is part of National Geographic's [Short Film Showcase](http://documentary.com), highlighting exceptional videos. Watch the full film [here](https://youtu.be/GT-JhME-xXw) and [subscribe](http://bit.ly/NatGeoSubscribe) to National Geographic for more.

Andrew J. McElrone is a Plant Physiologist with USDA-ARS and an Adjunct Associate Professor in Viticulture and Enology at the University of California, Davis. He previously served as Director of the USDA California Climate Hub.

His research, titled "The Answer Was Blowin’ in the Wind," details the transformation of surface renewal into a commercially viable irrigation management tool. This innovation provides an accurate method for measuring crop evapotranspiration (ET).

For residents of Portland, Oregon, and Seattle, Washington, garbage goes to the Columbia Ridge Landfill in Arlington, Oregon. Sustainable Today visited this mammoth site to understand its operations and how to limit the amount of waste buried there.

They also saw a new power plant under construction, which will generate electricity from methane gas captured at the site. Explore related topics like garbage, landfills, methane, power, and sustainability here: Garbage, Landfill, methane, power, sustainability, environment.

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.
