Infrastructure news, articles and information:
 | 11/18/2016 - As infrastructure in America's oldest cities approaches the century mark in many cases, it is becoming more apparent than ever that a national revitalization plan is needed to address what are evolving – and worsening – health issues related to decay.
One of the biggest health problems...

 | 6/9/2016 - Although the U.S. is regarded as a developed nation, its infrastructure often does not provide Americans with safe drinking water. In wake of the Flint, Michigan incident, where state and federal regulators permitted the public to drink water contaminated with lead, it would be wise for the U.S. to...

 | 4/26/2016 - Americans enamored with Sen. Bernie Sanders' socialist economic plans – which essentially amount to taxing the rich (a lot – to the point where they'd leave the country), along with everyone who earns a wage, so that government could make lots of things like college, healthcare and day care...
|
 | 1/28/2016 - Emergency rooms play a crucial role in the proper functioning of health care in the United States. During any given year, 45% of American people visit the ER, but a recent study published by the Academic Emergency Medicine journal suggests that not all of them can receive help. According to the study,...

 | 1/13/2016 - Right now, all the focus for increasing crop yields is centered on one method: Genetically modifying crops to make them resistant to pesticides and herbicides. In this model of farming, haste makes waste. Instead of working with the land, we poison it instead with chemicals like glyphosate. Even the...

 | 12/24/2015 - Could it be that Donald Trump, if he wins the presidency, will don a hard hat and take to the streets with a jackhammer in hand? Possibly, according to tweets earlier this year, in which he stressed the need for vast improvement to the country's failing infrastructure.
On Twitter, Trump – @realDonaldTrump...

 | 7/17/2015 - Some last-minute deal-making to ensure that Greece's bailout debt is fully repaid is not likely to sit well with the Greek electorate.
A week ago, voters in Greece overwhelmingly rejected a deal, rebuffing European leaders who were demanding new austerity measures and a piece of Greece's soul.
In...

| 5/23/2015 - To many residents of Los Angeles, the images were surreal: city streets flooded with a couple of feet of water even as California bakes in a historic drought.
To other observers, however, the image was one of the failure of Big Government. The cause of the "colossal" flood was a ruptured water main,...
|
 | 11/26/2014 - Russia has placed a destructive "Trojan Horse" malware program in the software that operates most of America's critical infrastructure, making it possible for Moscow to cause economic catastrophe throughout the U.S., the Department of Homeland Security has now warned.
The cyber operation is the modern-day...
|
 | 9/1/2014 - Water is increasingly hard to come by in drought-stricken California, where many farmers are struggling to get enough water just to pay the bills. But the situation in the Golden State is far worse than many people realize, according to new reports, as underground aquifers that take decades to recharge...
|
 | 8/21/2014 - As the city of Los Angeles ages, its infrastructure is becoming increasingly fragile, and worse, city officials have no idea how they are going to finance upgrades. This, in a city -- and a state -- with some of the highest tax rates in the country, and it still isn't enough.
As reported by Bloomberg...
|
 | 6/26/2013 - For years experts have been warning that the U.S. electrical infrastructure is vulnerable to both manmade and natural threats. Either from an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapon fired at the U.S. by an enemy, or from a solar flare caused by major sunspot activity, all the technology that supports our...
|
 | 10/26/2012 - In a world where threats to national security are increasingly coming from online sources, the United States must do more to beef up its cyber defenses or suffer consequences similar to, or worse than, those suffered on 9/11.
That dire warning came from Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta, who told...

 | 10/7/2012 - If you're in California, you're paying sky-high prices for gasoline this week. At some stations, prices are over $5 a gallon. But you might not be aware of why you're paying this price. The answer may be more than a little disturbing: California's energy infrastructure is so fragile that a power outage...
|
 | 8/9/2012 - They say the integrity of a nation's infrastructure is a direct reflection of its overall moral, social, economic, and political health. If this is true, then the United States is in some very serious trouble, as the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), America's oldest national engineering society,...
|
 | 8/7/2012 - America is falling apart, literally, and the extreme weather events of the past few months and years surely have not helped the situation any. A recent New York Times (NYT) piece explains that various roads, bridges, and even nuclear power facilities all across the country are crumbling, or otherwise...
|
 | 7/31/2012 - "Grids supplying electricity to half of India's 1.2 billion people collapsed on Tuesday," reports Reuters. "The outage was the worst to hit India in more than a decade and embarrassed the government, which has failed to build up enough power capacity to meet soaring demand."
