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

National debate about a green economy has so far mostly ignored a key issue: Practical strategies to decrease carbon use must work within the existing, multi-trillion-dollar energy infrastructure. This investment includes, for instance, 115,000 gas stations, 2.4 million miles of fuel pipeline and 275 million vehicles. Fortunately, we can build a decarbonized society on this infrastructure by continuing to plug in clean energy sources.
