[NEWS] As world leaders prepare to gather in France for the 2015 United Nations Conference on Climate Change next week, global warming — and how to stop it — is a hot topic. To limit climate change, experts say that we need to reach carbon neutrality by the end of this century at the latest. To achieve that goal, our dependence on fossil fuels must be reversed. But what energy source will take its place? Researchers from Concordia University in Montreal just might have the an…

ClimateWire: Algae may be tiny, but new research suggests the single-celled organisms could play an outsized role in slowing the rate of global warming over the rest of the 21st century. In fact, it is their small size, or rather their small land requirement, that could make them an important tool to help mitigate climate change, according to Brian Walsh, a research scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). Unlike most crops that have very specific growing conditions, algae...

Toledo mayoral candidate Mike Ferner said Ohio officials should demand Michigan Governor Snyder and his Departments of Agriculture and Environmental Quality stop 'cooking the books' when reporting phosphorus levels dumped into Lake Erie. THE BLADE/JETTA FRASER One of Toledo's seven mayoral candidates is accusing Michigan officials of "cooking the books" by playing up decreases in total phosphorus loading into the Detroit River, the River Raisin, and western Lake Erie while downplaying increases in dissolved reactive phosphorus, the type that grows the most algae.
