				 Members of the Earth Systems Science Agency can predict the future, monitor the weather and control satellites. They have a loosely-defined connection to the U.S. government and several cutting-edge labs, and possess "geologic, biologic, hydrologic and geospatial expertise." Whoa, is this new super-team going to knock the Avengers and JLA right out of the sky as they defend the Earth? Nope, the Earth Systems Science Agency is actually real. U.S. scientists and federal officials hope it will become a mega-environmental group that can mobilize and quickly respond to ecological threats.				<a href="http://io9.com/5022043/earth-systems-science-agency-++-to-the-rescue" title="Click here to read more about Earth Systems Science Agency &mdash; To the Rescue!">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
