#Climate change & the #energy transition place #transportation systems @ higher risk for service disruptions & other hazards. CS3 researchers & co-authors of a new study advance a holistic vision of transportation planning that could minimize that risk. tinyurl.com/5837swj5

“We obviously have a lot of technologies that are trying to remove #carbon from the air,” says CS3 Deputy Director C. Adam Schlosser, but “the best way of doing that, in terms of nature, is to plant new vegetation.” tinyurl.com/2k8txsws #climatechange

After more than 10 years of successes, the work of the MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative will spread out across the Institute. Components will become part of the Climate Project, CS3 & other MIT entities. tinyurl.com/45uj6ask #climate #sustainability

“Greenhouse gas emissions are at an all-time record, and there’s no doubt we’re going to have to do a better job at adaptation. But while we must adapt, adaptation without mitigation is futile.” bit.ly/4n8JAE8

At the MIT #Sustainability Summit 2025, MIT Sloan Professor/CS3 faculty affiliate John Sterman stresses the need for “multisolving”—actions that cut emissions and help us adapt to the #climate damage we have already caused. tinyurl.com/bdeasupd
