What an impactful week in Stockholm at the launch of the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission! Congrats to the @CornellCALS team who led the modeling section on this landmark report 🎉 More on the most comprehensive scientific eval of food & climate change to date: news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

Extreme heat is the deadliest weather disaster in the U.S. And, it’s only getting worse. @CornellMPH 's Alistair Hayden & Toby Ault (@CornellCALS) joined communities in New Mexico for a tabletop exercise to strengthen emergency preparedness & response in Tribal contexts.

Finance can bridge the gap between #climate science and business decision-making, according to a panel of experts convened by the @Cornell SC Johnson College of Business and @AtkinsonCenter during Climate Week 2025, last month in NYC. news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

📣 Calling Cornell University faculty Cornell Atkinson and Environmental Defense Fund are delighted to host Cornell faculty and EDF scientists at our annual Collaboration-Building Workshop for Competitive Funding on October 15!

This year's Lund debate from the Einaudi Center for International Studies brings together policy and practice experts for an unfiltered look at the future of international aid. RSVP to attend Oct. 22. events.cornell.edu/event/is-…

Food systems make up roughly 30% of total greenhouse gas emissions globally. But transforming them could cut these emissions by more than half, according to a report released Oct. 3 from a commission of global experts from more than 35 countries across six continents. A team of Cornell researchers led the modeling section of the Report on Healthy, Sustainable and Just Food Systems, by the EAT-Lancet Commission. The report presents the most comprehensive global scientific evaluation of food systems and how they affect climate change to date. The Cornell team ran model simulations to explore how food systems could look by 2050. The research reveals that food systems have the greatest negative effect on five of nine critical global processes – known in the climate change field as “planetary boundaries” – that regulate the Earth’s stability and resilience. “Collaborations like EAT-Lancet are vital to imagining and advancing a more sustainable future,” said Mario Herrero, professor of global development in @CornellCALS and a Cornell @AtkinsonCenter Scholar. “Playing a leadership role in this international network allows Cornell researchers to both contribute to and learn from the diverse expertise driving food systems transformation.” More at news.cornell.edu/stories/202….

Now live: the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission @EATforum + @TheLancet 🎉 The report presents major scientific update on how our food system can support sustainability. Proud to support the modelling section of the report, led by @CornellCALS researchers. ℹ️news.cornell.edu/stories/202…

Here's a great new article covering my lab's work on the Microbe-Mineral Atlas in @sciam. Thanks @vanessabramirez! @Cornell, @CornellEng, @cornellcals, @AtkinsonCenter.

Cornell at Climate Week NYC 2025 ✨ From resilient cities to regenerative farms, clean energy to community voices, @cornelluniversity research was at the forefront of innovative ideas and momentum towards real-world sustainability solutions.

Day 3️⃣of #ClimateWeekNYC w/ a standing room only keynote at the @nuclearny Nuclear Symposium. Ready to build on NYS successes -- 6GW of distributed solar, @SouthForkWind & nearing completion on @CHPEexpress – and add advanced nuclear to meet NYS’ growing power needs.

I love nuclear and have been a huge cheerleader for the past five years. But this New York Climate Week, I’ve changed my tone to be a lot more direct. Why? Because this is the *last* nuclear renaissance and we cannot afford to focus on vaporwave solutions that won’t get nuclear to scale. It’s time to build. If the western nuclear industry can’t capitalize on the current tsunami of political, public and private investment support, it’ll be hard to see why it should be given another chance. Extend the operation of existing plants, restart or rebuild recently closed ones and start building licensed reactors. Let’s make this happen!

CATF joined @AtkinsonCenter, @EnvDefenseFund, and @nature_org to showcase how strategic cross-sector collaboration is transforming livestock methane research into real-world climate solutions, digging into critical pathways from scientific innovation to on-farm practice.

CATF’s Darryle Ulama and David Yellen joined @AtkinsonCenter for a discussion the state of U.S. clean energy innovation and technology policy, the implications of AI, and what’s needed to ensure emerging technologies reach their full climate and economic potential.
