MINNEAPOLIS - The federal government is investing $60 million in three major studies on the effects of climate change on crops and forests to help ensure farmers and foresters can continue to produce food and timber while trying to limit the impact of a changing environment.
The three studies take a new approach to crop and climate research by bringing together researchers from a wide variety of fields and encouraging them to find solutions appropriate to specific geographic areas. One study will focus on Midwestern corn, another on wheat in the Northwest and a third on Southern pine forests.

For many ethnic Americans whose family members are at the frontlines of global warming back in their home countries, climate change is a life-and-death issue.
As media who advocate for diasporic communities and serve as a bridge between home countries and neighborhoods here, we call on the White House and Congress to address climate change on two fronts: taking steps to reduce our own carbon dioxide emissions and helping the world...
