Are the American West and Southeast drying up? Is a Siberian town's collapse good for the environment? Can science save Detroit and an unexplored jungle?

How many physicists does it take to change a climate? Does global warming actually cause more hurricanes? Can we trace illegal lumber? And can cheapskates hide behind environmentalism at X-Mas?

Getting power from algae in Scotland, from underwater windmills in Britain and from trees in Massachusetts. Plus, the top natural disaster photos from 2008.

Fri, Dec 19 2008 at 9:22 AM

It's a good morning to be a U.S. automaker or electric utility, but science fans have reason to celebrate, too. Also, the future of U.S. transportation approaches a crossroads, and electric cars could make kids smarter.

Obama's a quick study in Cabinetry, but what does his transportation pick have under LaHood? Also, NASA rises above global warming, Exxon Mobil asks "Did you feel a slight pinch?" and scientists urge new moms to use their breast judgment.
