Even if the nations of the world are able to achieve sharp cuts in carbon emissions to achieve the aspirational goals of the Paris Agreement and limit warming to 1.5-2°C, the frequency of extreme weather will increase.

A new kind of solar cell uses bacteria instead of silicon to convert sunlight into electricity. It could lead to a cheap, sustainable way to generate electricity even when skies are overcast or the light is dim.
