We’re up in Cambridge, Mass., and were over at the MIT Museum yesterday. One exhibit looked at the work of Daniel Nocera and his colleagues on developing a new catalytic process to convert water to oxygen and hydrogen. There is wonderful potential in this to create a zero carbon, closed loop distributed energy system.
The MIT Climate Collaboratorium is another project that has great reference material. Check it out. More importantly, this world-class engineering school is engaged in critical policy work: MIT’s Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change.
