There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

"Ernest Moniz, former head of the US Department of Energy under Barack Obama, says we need to pump far more carbon into the ground than we’re currently extracting out of it....But the steep cost declines predicted for carbon removal have not yet been borne out at scale. An affordable, competitive target is $100 per ton of CO2 removed. But the real costs today, estimates Christopher Jones, an adjunct professor [sic] at the Georgia Institute of Technology, are as high as $600 per ton." Christopher Jones is the New Vision Professor in the Georgia Tech School of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
