What if homeowners could control their own electricity flow and slash energy costs?
Schneider Electric and the National Lab of the Rockies have spent a decade exploring exactly that. They're developing smart panels and using AI to reimagine America's energy future—modeling scenarios for 2050 and quantifying how tech can deliver resilience and affordability.

Scientists warn heatwaves will intensify for 1,000 years even after net zero
New climate modeling shows that heatwaves will keep getting hotter, longer, and more frequent for centuries—even after the world hits net-zero emissions. Delays of just a few years dramatically increase the likelihood of extreme, once-rare heat disasters, especially for countries near the equator. The research reveals that even reaching net zero by mid-century won't reverse the trend, and some regions will continue to see worsening heatwaves for a thousand years.

Les oubliées de Caluire, ces femmes dans l’ombre de Jean Moulin
Elles s’appelaient Madeleine Raisin, Suzanne Olivier, Colette Pons… Des noms qui n’évoquent rien. Membres de réseaux clandestins ou proches du chef résistant, elles ont œuvré, souvent au péril de leur vie, pour tenter d’éviter le pire après son arrestation, le 21 juin 1943. La paix revenue, elles ont contribué à honorer sa mémoire. Une postérité à laquelle ces héroïnes n’ont jamais eu droit.
