Hurricanes get the headlines, but extreme heat causes more deaths than all other weather disasters combined. As AGCI’s James Arnott and Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC®’s Greg Alvarez explore in this piece for Yale Climate Connections, the right strategies can help save lives.

Studies show climate events can have catastrophic consequences for human health including the spread of disease vectors and contaminated food or drinking water supplies, but new research is identifying ways to reduce the risks.

In summer of 2022, intern Lauran Garcia investigated the relationship between snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) in the Roaring Fork Valley by comparing SNOTEL and satellite data.

How quickly we reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions critically depends on how fast we learn in the process. New research uses learning curves to explain staggering declines in costs of key climate technologies like solar photovoltaics and batteries, grounding hopes that we can get where we need to go—as long as we don’t delay getting started.

This overview provides a summary of results from a project mapping soil moisture across a subset of the landscape for each site in the Roaring Fork Observation Network (iRON).

More than ever, a sustainable future for the Colorado River basin depends on collaborative efforts and trust.

In this Yale Climate Connections article, AGCI's James Arnott and Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC®'s Sarah Spengeman explore how humans’ capacity to imagine can help create new and more hopeful climate realities and boost citizen engagement.

As climate change causes more extreme heat days across the globe, heat has become a critical issue for public health and city planning. Recent research illuminates why extreme heat poses even greater health and economic threats than previously thought, but also points to ways we can build effective solutions to address it.
