Four Years, 1,630 Posts and a Nice Award (opens the original)
Read excerpt
9:11 p.m. | Updated I’m honored to be among the winners of the National Academies Communication Awards this year, in this case in the online category for this work in progress called Dot Earth, which will have its fourth anniversary later this month. (I was a recipient of this award, administered by the Academies’ Keck Futures Initiative, in the newspapers/magazines category in 2003, the first year it was offered, for coverage of climate science and policy.) [There’s more on the award, and my bl
A High-Rise Lab Amid Madagascar's Troubled Treetops (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patricia Wright, a Stony Brook University scientist who is a longtime student of lemurs and voice for conservation in Madagascar, has sent a Dot Earth postcard (you can, too) reflecting on the opening there this month of a remarkable new research hub for studying the array of species in one of the island nation’s parks. [11:22 p.m. | Updated | Here’s a great post on the project by Rick Hauser of In.Site:Architecture, the firm that designed the building.] Madagascar’s biological patrimony is in d
Which Comes First - Peak Everything or Peak Us? (opens the original)

A mid-range best guess for the peak remains roug

As longtime readers know, a prime focus on Dot Earth has been testing ways to clarify disputes over consequential science — a need that’s amplified in complex arenas laden by persistent uncertainty. It’s not quite a law of physics yet, but a there’s a consistent pattern in such cases in which a paucity of evidence leads to an overabundance of assertion. Lately, I’ve come to frame the challenge as a question: Can we foster an online (and real-life) culture in which veracity is cool? You’ll see mo
Appreciation - Dot Earth Blog - The New York Times (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dot Earth often had the feel of an accelerating hamster wheel (see posts marked with the fire hose image). But it was a wheel of my own creation, given the broad question I chose to pursue starting back in October, 2007 – how do humans navigate this century with the fewest regrets? Countless relevant developments and insights slipped by before I could note them, which is why Twitter and Facebook, in the end, became my real web log – my way of assessing, relating and sharing consequential nuggets
