TL;DR: This work estimates that the life cycle effects of coal and the waste stream generated are costing the U.S. public a third to over one‐half of a trillion dollars annually, and conservatively doubles to triples the price of electricity from coal per kWh generated, making wind, solar, and other forms of nonfossil fuel power generation, along with investments in efficiency and electricity conservation methods, economically competitive.

TL;DR: It is argued that there is an emergent potential in bridging the sustainability transitions and resilience approaches to create new scientific capacity that can support large-scale social-ecological transformations to sustainability globally, not just in the West.

TL;DR: In their Letter “Competencies: A cure for pre-med curriculum” (11 November 2011, p.760), W. A.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the important role that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) play in food, energy, and water (FEW) governance, and propose an important role for ICTs in bridging the knowledge gap associated with FEW development goals and addressing the synergies and trade-offs between these goals and existing governance arrangements.
