These cranberry bogs come with a side of solar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s cranberry season in southeastern Massachusetts. At bogs throughout the region, growers are collecting the ruby-red berries destined for holiday cakes, juice bottles, and cans of jellied sauce. At two farms, however, the harvesting process looks a little different: Pickers are navigating equipment around metal poles in the shade of solar panels. The two bogs are the first in the country — perhaps the world — to grow cranberries beneath an operating solar installation. This fall marks the sec…
Democrats take control of Georgia’s powerful utility regulator (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Beginning in January, three of the five officials on the Georgia Public Service Commission will be Democrats. It will be the first time the party has controlled the powerful energy regulation board in 30 years. The commission, which regulates utilities including the state’s largest electric provider, Georgia Power, has come under more scrutiny in recent years due to rising power bills and the high energy demands of data centers. Now, Democrats plan to focus on affordability, clean energy, and cl…
Glaciers around the world are endangered — but no two are alike (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Part of my work as a geographer and glacier scientist involves traveling around the world. Literally. Several times a year, I join expeditions, traversing continents and oceans, sometimes half the planet, in mere days.

Or Iceland’s Breiðamerkurjökull, where glacier change is exacerbating the ice-breaking pressures of global tourism. Or South Georgia’s H…

Read excerpt
Plastic pollution blights the streets, beaches, parks, and lawns of Baltimore. A significant amount of that litter bears the circular red-and-blue Pepsi logo or the flowing white script of Coca-Cola’s branding. But, legally speaking, none of that rubbish is Pepsi’s fault. Or Coke’s. That’s what a Baltimore city circuit court judge ruled this summer following a legal battle in which the city and county of Baltimore sought money from PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, and others to clean up plastic pollution. Co…
How the midterms could unleash a new era for clean energy in these 3 states (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When Trump was elected both in 2016 and 2024, promising to make the federal government hostile to climate action, many climate advocates insisted that state and local governments would take up the mantle of pushing for clean energy. That’s the thesis of the “America Is All In” coalition, which brings together cities and states that have vowed to uphold America’s “climate commitments … [i]n the absence of federal leadership.” The unspoken caveat in these claims is that the states leading the way …
