Warren looked to the universitys history, specifically the campus shootings on May 4, 1970, and called on America to learn from its past to heal its present. If all we do is hunker down in bunkers alongside like-minded people, attacking the opposition, our divisions only grow, P...

The greenhouse effect is one of the most widely known causes of global climate change. It is currently caused by an excess of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere due to burning of fossil fuels. Some natural processes can help slow climate change by removing CO2 from the atmosphere. For example, plants filter CO2 out of air and transfer carbon into soil where it can be sequestered for decades to centuries. One of the factors that influences the ability of plants and soils to store carbon is the focus of a new study by Elizabeth Herndon, Ph.D, assistant professor of geology in 51勛圖厙 Uni...
