The relentless march of computational power has long relied on our ability to make electronic components smaller and more efficient. At the heart of this progress lies the humble transistor – the fundamental building block of modern electronics. However, as our digital world expands and artificial intelligence applications become more demanding, we’re approaching a critical […]

The landscape that my ancestors thrived on was once a sprawling prairie that provided plenty and allowed for more than just human convenience, but life and health for all creatures and non-living relatives. Throughout generations, we’ve carried the impact of colonization on our backs and see the many changes that have already been made through […]

“Okay class, let’s discuss the geological formation at Minnehaha Falls.” This is how I would begin a typical lesson in my environmental science course at the University of Minnesota. The students and I would walk down the winding stairs to reach the waterfall. I would point out the different species of plants and have the […]
