Aerogel as Clear As Glass:  (Starts 4:00)   Most aerogels "windows" are kind of foggy looking.  A CU-Boulder science team has created something better.  It's a liquid made from recycled plant material, a liquid that hardens into a  gel that’s almost as light as air, almost as clear as glass, yet it can insulate against temperature changes.  This “gel” is flexible enough, you can wear it like a glove. And they’ve made it from a rather environmentally friendly source — it’s cellulose, created by microbes “digesting” the beer mash that gets left over after  making beer.  New Science Standards for Colorado Public Schools (Starts 13:30):  CU Boulder Education Research expert Erin Furtak explains new, more hands-on and interactive way to learn science.  These will soon be part of Colorado Public Schools.  The new science standards will be the first update of Colorado Science Education Standards in well over a decade.  In addition to teachers using these standards, parents can, too.

Although other states have proposed removing controversial topics, such as climate change, from their state science standards, Idaho is the only state in the country whose legislature has actually voted in favor of such an action. The debate over what kids in Idaho should be taught has been going on for 3 years now and will likely come to a head this week as the Idaho Senate Education Committee is set to make a final decision. Matt Podolsky spoke with Rialin Flores, from Conservation Voters for Idaho, to get a detailed picture of this issue and to learn how she has been fighting to keep climate science in the science standards in Idaho. Following this interview, we include a sample of the public testimony provided last week at the Idaho Senate Education Committee hearing, all of which encourages Senators to vote in favor of keeping climate science in the science standards.
