I’m grateful to the Senate for confirming Dr. Asmeret Berhe as U.S. Department of Energy’s new Director for DOE Office of Science. Dr. Berhe's been ahead of the curve throughout her career as a biogeochemist, and we need her leadership in scientific collaboration and climate science.energy.gov/articles/state…


Friends, I am VERY excited to share a new job posting near and dear to my heart. I have recently co-founded a new nonprofit - Solving For Science (solvingfor.org) and we are 🚨 beginning the search for our Executive Director today!! 🚨 Details at sfs.addpotion.com/Executive-Dire…


Our new DayCent modeling study on the climate change mitigation potential of annual grasslands under future climates is out today in Ecological Applications !! doi.org/10.1002/eap.27…

Big congrats to Tyler Anthony on his new paper in Nature Communications showing the power of hot moments of greenhouse gas emissions from soils! rdcu.be/c9lO4




Landfills generate one-third of all methane emissions in the U.S., partly because food scraps—the most commonly disposed of item—decompose in the piles. Research led by Whendee Silver suggests composting could reduce landfill emissions by up to 84 percent. grist.org/food/food-wast…
