Lead authors of the MIT Joint Program's signature publication present the Outlook's projections of future energy, water, food, climate, and policy prospects

By MIT Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change

 

The 2021 Global Change Outlook presents the MIT Joint Program’s latest projections for the future of the Earth’s energy, managed resources (including water, agriculture and land), and climate, as well as prospects for achieving the Paris Agreement’s short-term targets and long-term goals of keeping average global temperatures below 2°C or even 1.5°C.

In this 90 minute webinar, Joint Program Director Ronald Prinn delivers introductory remarks and Deputy Directors Sergey Paltsev and Adam Schlosser present an overview of the Outlook and key findings, followed by Q&A.

Solving the solvent problem

MIT Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering
A machine-learning-guided pipeline enables researchers to generate solvent candidate pools on demand, narrow the selections down, and experimentally test the most promising electrolyte recipes. These scanning electron microscopy images show the morphology of sodium-metal deposits obtained from three different electrolyte candidates.
