Areas of Expertise:

David Biello is the award-winning senior reporter for environment and energy at Scientific American. He has written on subjects ranging from astronomy to zoology for both the Web site and magazine. He has been reporting on the environment and energy since 1999--long enough to be cynical but not long enough to be depressed. He is a contributor to the 60-Second Science podcasts, host of PBS's "Beyond the Light Switch" as well as a forthcoming documentary on ethanol "The Ethanol Effect." He is the author of a children's book on bullet trains and is currently working on a book for grown-ups about whether the Earth has entered a new geologic epoch thanks to people's impacts and what should be done about this Anthropocene.
