Tell Congress You Won’t Accept Trump's Environmental Cuts
Grace Clark On November 13th, the US Federal Government reopened after a forty-three day shutdown. This record-breaking shutdown shows that Trump’s 2026 federal budget request is one of the most historically controversial, and for good reason. The budget plans to cut millions in spending aimed at studying, preserving, and restoring the unique and invaluable environment America is blessed with. Fortunately, by getting informed and speaking your mind, you can do your small part

The Arctic Water Crisis: Losing 10,000 Gallons a Day and Why It Matters for Global Sustainability
Jane Marsh The Arctic is often the epicenter of climate change discussions, and rightfully so. Imagine a lake appearing overnight where a frozen structure had stood for millions of years. As permafrost thaws amid rising global temperatures, this phenomenon is quickly becoming the Arctic's new reality. The transformation is dramatic and startling, shedding light on a hidden water crisis that few could have predicted. Beyond melting glaciers, the region's freshwater system is o

How Wetlands Keep Our Climate in Check
Irleen Kaur When we think about powerful climate solutions, we often visualize clean technology or other engineered systems. Yet, we often overlook leveraging natural landscapes in helping regulate our planet’s climate. Wetlands, for example, play an important role in balancing the atmosphere's carbon levels and water purification. Understanding and protecting this ecosystem is a critical strategy in our response to climate change. What is a Wetland? Wetlands are areas where

Forever Chemicals, Forever Problems: How PFAS Contaminated Our World
Irleen Kaur Becoming a highly industrialized society has had its pros and cons. We’ve engineered chemicals that protect plants, resist extreme heat, and repel water. These conveniences have revolutionized the products we make today, but they come with a dark side. These synthetic chemicals last forever in our environment, accumulating in waterways, soil, marine organisms, wildlife, and even our bloodstream. PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a diverse group of

Greening the I-95 Corridor: Sustainable Dry Van Shipping to Protect New England Coasts
Alex Buzan Introduction: Why the I-95 Freight Route Must Go Green The I-95 corridor plays a vital role in the US transportation system. Yet, such active traffic has its downsides.

How University Students Can Live a More Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Life
Erica Gibson Nobody wakes up one morning and decides to become the sustainability spokesperson of their entire dorm floor. That is not how it works. For most students, the shift starts small. Maybe a reusable water bottle, maybe guilt over tossing another plastic fork in the trash. The truth is, sustainable living for college students rarely begins with a manifesto. It begins with noticing. And that is what makes it interesting. University life is chaotic by design. Between l
