Why Startups Are Moving into Research Park at FAU
Posted on: Tuesday, April 7th, 2015
It’s gotten a little more crowded at Research Park at Florida Atlantic University. More than twice as many people work on the park’s Boca Raton and Deerfield Beach campuses now compared to three years ago, said President and CEO Andrew Duffell. Research Park is independent from FAU, but helps link its educational and research efforts […]

For First Time in 40 Years, World Energy Sector GHG Emissions Stalled in 2014
Posted on: Tuesday, April 7th, 2015
Global emissions of carbon dioxide from the energy sector were unchanged from the preceding year-marking the first time in 40 years in which there was a halt or reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases that was not associated to an economic downturn, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said.

This Solar-Powered Plane is Currently Circumnavigating the World
Posted on: Thursday, March 26th, 2015
With 17,000 solar cells in its wing and tail, the aircraft relies solely on sunshine to keep its motors running. If ever there were a reason to sleep on a seat that converts to a toilet, circumnavigating the world in a solar-powered plane might be it.
