Maple, Ash Baseball Bats May Strike Out
The talk turns to baseball bats — including whether maple bats should be benched, and how a tiny bug may throw the bat-making industry a curve ball.


New Way To Land Planes May Save Fuel
A new style of landing called "continuous descent" involves the plane flying straight. Alex Kingsbury, a reporter with U.S. News and World Report, says delivery firm UPS has saved 50 gallons of jet fuel per landing by using the system on its planes.


Grand Canyon On The Cheap
Judging from this summer's big crowds, Grand Canyon National Park is clearly a destination of choice for vacationers in tough economic times. Some visitors might be Americans trying to save a buck, but others are coming from far away.


Forest Service Tangles With The Rainbow Family
A group of activists who meet every year with a focus on world peace and natural living, the Rainbow Family brings thousands of people to U.S. Forest Service land. John Twiss, who is overseeing law enforcement at this year's gathering, says keeping the gathering contained is a priority.


Glacier Bay Park's Gravity Shifts As Ice Melts
The ice sheet in Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska has receded so much that the Earth's crust is rebounding. Alaskans who live in the area have grown used to expanding properties, brown bears — even a slight drop in gravity.


New Orleans Park Has Ear For Jazz
Many national parks have myths, legends and tall tales. At the New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park, the true legends are the musicians. Drummer Benny Jones, leader of the Treme Brass Band, and park ranger Bruce Barnes tell the story of the music.


Environmental Educator Eyes Yosemite Roadkill
Moose Mutlow, a quirky environmental education instructor in Yosemite National Park, has been tracking the roadkill there to figure out what gets killed and why. He's armed with a clipboard, a baseball bat to kill suffering animals who don't seem likely to survive encounters with cars, and a shovel to pry flattened victims from the blacktop. For one study, he spent nearly a year surveying 30 miles of highway twice daily, and found endangered great gray owls and bears. He's worked with park rangers to create "Red Bear, Dead Bear" signs for park visitors to urge them to slow down. From KQED, Sasha Khohka reports.


Calif. Fights Extreme Heat
Climate scientists say extreme heat in California will worsen in the coming decades as a result of climate change. Heat waves that once lasted days could instead last for months. That adds up to dangerous conditions, especially for the elderly. In Stanislaus County, emergency responders are already working on how to help safeguard residents against temperatures that could make life not just uncomfortable, but downright dangerous. Sarah Varney reports from member station KQED.


Madagascar Chameleon's Short, Vibrant Life
Flowers called annuals live for a year, shed seeds and then die. A chameleon from Madagascar lives a similar life. These chameleons spend most of their lives in the form of eggs. Once hatched, they live just a few months and then die — leaving only eggs to survive until the next hatching season.


Global Warming Threatens Everglades, Residents
Few places in the U.S. are more threatened by global warming than Everglades National Park in Florida. Park officials say the national park as well as the water supply and flood control for 6 million people who live in south Florida are at risk.
