Fertile Ground for Reform: A Research Roadmap for Agricultural Nitrogen Pollution (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) held a briefing about tracking and reducing agricultural nitrous oxide, a major greenhouse gas. Nitrogen is a key component in fertilizer, making it critical to food security. Unfortunately, due to overapplication, only about half of nitrogen fertilizer is actually absorbed by crops. This leads to high levels of nitrous oxide emissions and threatens drinking water, ecosystems, and public health.
Rapid Readout: Impacts of Severe Drought (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) held a Rapid Readout on the far-reaching implications of intensive drought across the country.

In addition, a record-low snowpack means less water for reservoirs, which could lead to water shortages during the summer months, affecting economic activity, hydropower generation, and agriculture.
