Stanford researchers have played pivotal roles in establishing new marine reserves on the California coast, developing more energy efficient building designs and materials, and studying how public attitudes to global warming are changing, among a plethora of other environmental research breakthroughs. With the annual conference of the Society of Environmental Journalists on campus Sept. 5-9, the Woods Institute for the Environment and Stanford News Service have produced a special report — the Green Sheet — to highlight how the university is leveraging its resources to find solutions to the world’s most pressing environmental problems.
