Ocean could be place to store fossil fuel mess
Scientists say a partial solution to global warming may lie beneath the seafloor off the coasts of Washington and Oregon. Researchers envision a system where carbon-dioxide emissions from power plants would be captured, liquefied and pumped into porous basalt layers up to a half-mile below the ocean bottom. That would trap the greenhouse gas with virtually no chance of leaking, they say.

Tap America's spirit of sacrifice
The Christian Science Monitor - Americans can be good at collective sacrifice. During World War II, they were encouraged to buy war bonds and lived with rationed gas, coal, and foods. During the 1970s oil crisis, they had to slow down to 55 m.p.h. But what about now, when the country faces pricey challenges, from global warming to over-heated healthcare costs?
