MIT Center for Sustainability Science and Strategy

As climate change amplifies the frequency and intensity of hurricanes and other extreme events in the United States and around the world, and the populations and economies they threaten grow and change, there is a critical need to make infrastructure more resilient. A new "risk triage" platform developed by the MIT Joint Program could help decision-makers to take action to mitigate and adapt to multiple, compounding risks that face the nation.(Source: Severe Weather Europe)

This diagram illustrates the new process for enhancing reaction rates in an electrocatalytic process. The catalyst layer, made of gold or platinum, is shown as gray spheres at the bottom, and the material to be catalyzed is shown as the rad spheres at the top. Adding a layer of ionic liquid in between, shown as the hexagonal lattices, can increase reaction rates by fivefold. At left, a detail of how oxygen (red) and hydrogen (green) can combine to form water at an enhanced rate through this process.
