When we started investigating how mass media affected people’s behavior during the recent #CAdrought 4 yrs ago, there were many skeptics!➡️advances.sciencemag.org/cont… @kimquesnel so glad to see this topic is expanding& getting traction @emilygrubert excited to read these new work!

U.S. cities are forging ahead on their own, not waiting on Beltway politics to be resolved before making investments to prepare their water systems for the decades ahead. circleofblue.org/2019/world/…

How can we actually get #groundwater #recharge to happen?
Are the barriers primarily about building a better infiltration basin, or do the institutions present major challenges too? Who has solved them and how?
Join us September 10 in Berkeley to find out. #recharge2019

"Even if we make the transition to clean energy, we need to do so in a way that returns control of a green planet to children" says @dan_kammen in #TheBeamPodcast. Stay tuned as we'll soon release the first episode on #100RE.

.@UCBerkeley tops the list of @UofCalifornia campuses that were ranked among the world’s best in two separate rankings!
Both assessments focused on the high-quality of research at UC & its outsized influence in global scholarly & academic publications: bit.ly/UCRankings1

To adapt to a changing climate, California must coordinate management of water stored in surface reservoirs and groundwater basins. Policy brief on water and #climatechange lays out issues, solutions: ppic.org/wp-content/uploads/…

Because desalination requires vast amounts of energy, @kiparsky of @BerkeleyLawCLEE Wheeler Water Institute warns of a feedback loop where more desal is needed as the planet warms, which leads to more greenhouse gas emissions.
For decades, we have been told that desalination—desal for short— would one day turn oceans of salt water into fresh and quench the world’s thirst. But progress has been slow.
That's changing, as desal is coming into play in many places around the world. wired.trib.al/b6J247C

A groundbreaking California climate change report was published in 1989. For many, looking back on it now only underscores how long we've waited to act.

"As populations increase and existing surface water supplies are being tapped out or groundwater is depleted or polluted, then the problems are acute and there are choices to be made” - @kiparsky comments in @YaleE360

Growing more food requires intensification of agriculture, which affects the environment, which affects our ability to grow food. Time to pay attention to the Food-Environment Nexus. Read the latest @EnvSciTech editorial: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
