The alarming signs of climate change are all around us: devastating fires destroying whole communities, new temperature records set only to fall the next year, glaciers disappearing in real time. It's an overwhelming problem, but some have turned to e-bikes as one way to do their part to stave off the worst effects of our still-changing climate.

Fervo Energy, the company partnered with Google, is using the Nevada pilot project to launch others, including one in Utah that will deliver far more carbon-free electricity to the grid.

A new report says the large amount of methane leaking from Utah natural gas production sites not only contributes to climate change and poor air quality but also hurts the state’s economy.

Research from Brigham Young University is showing how animal and human waste could eventually replace natural gas to power cities.

Animal agriculture produces more methane – a powerful greenhouse gas – than any other human activity in the U.S. Climate experts say we need to cut greenhouse gas emissions dramatically before 2030. But when it comes to emissions from the livestock sector, the science is still emerging, and it’s not yet clear if the cuts will come in time—or how.
