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

Twenty-nine states have renewable energy standards, according to Georgia Tech energy policy professor Marilyn Brown. But Georgia is not one of those states. Brown says these states require proportionate increases in renewable electricity such as "biopower, wind, solar, landfill gas and other cleaner options over time, incrementally increasing the amount of renewables over time, which then means building more renewables and less fossil in the future."
