The consequences of coral bleaching are far-reaching, affecting not only the health of oceans but also the livelihoods of people, food security, and local economies. Severe or prolonged heat stress leads to corals dying off, but there is hope for recovery if temperatures drop and other stressors such as overfishing and pollution are...

In recent years, the tactics employed by activists to capture public attention and galvanize action have increasingly come under scrutiny. A recent study, published in the npj Climate Action journal, seeks to understand public perception of nonviolent civil disobedience within the climate activism arena. The study finds that the effectiveness of nonviolent civil disobedience in rallying support for climate action may significantly depend on how appropriate these tactics and their targets are perceived by the general public. At the heart of this investigation lies a critical question: do certai...

The project -- the sole SMR design yet to be approved by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission -- faced exploding costs that took the estimated price from $5.3 billion up to $9.3 billion. The "collapse of NuScale's project should spell the end for s...
