Why some farmers are pairing crops and grazing sheep with solar panels (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Traditionally, solar panel farms are quiet — save for the faint hum of the inverter. But on about one in ten of American solar farms, there's a new sound reverberating through fields: baaaa. Letting sheep roam under solar panels is just one of many forms of a burgeoning strategy called agrivoltaics, where crops grow or livestock graze in tandem with renewable energy infrastructure. It's not only of potential benefit for the animals, which get additional shade. The panels can also protect crops f
Strait of Hormuz attacks spill oil into Persian Gulf (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A dark, muddied patch of blue, incongruent with the rest of the ocean; a winding thread of silvery white; a reflective metallic sheen — these are some of the telltale signs on a satellite image that oil may be leaking into the water.

How climate change worsened Nepal's deadly mountain collapse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Nearly 1,400 people have died after a mountain slope collapsed and flash floods swept through the valleys of Nepal and Tibet. More than 5,000 people remain missing.

Why is carbon capture not moving faster? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For years there has been talk of capturing and storing the carbon dioxide generated by burning fossil fuels as one way to keep the planet from overheating. In fact, the United Nations' climate science body envisions somewhere between 350 to 1,200 gigatons of CO2 storage within the century to avoid the worst effects of climate change. Carbon capture and storage, or CCS, is an effort to trap CO2 at what's called a point source. This might be a smokestack or at an ammonia factory — in other words,
Fact check: Election fraud claims spread in Saxony-Anhalt (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On Sunday, Saxony-Anhalt held one of Germany's most consequential elections in years. The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) won a decisive lead, putting the party in a position to potentially form the first far-right state government in Germany since World War II. In the days before the vote, false and misleading claims seized on the election's importance, with social media users alleging fraud, vote-rigging and irregularities in the handling and counting of ballots.
