The image that comes to mind when I think of fossil fuel villains is Batman’s adversary Two-Face. To be two-faced is to be deceitful, and deception is what the fossil fuel industry executives excel in. One face flaunts how green, clean, and environmentally conscious they pretend to be (what we call greenwashing ), but the other shows their true nature: decades of lies, disinformation , and efforts to halt progress so that they continue to profit off their products that are poisoning people
There is a mass exodus from Chinese cities during the week-long holiday around the Lunar New Year as locals decamp to visit family. The migration is so large that, as cities empty, they see a measurable drop in temperature, a new study finds.
The U.S. DOE awarded funding to 24M, an energy storage manufacturer, to develop low-cost, fast-charging sodium metal batteries as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries. The post 24M Secures $3.2 Million to Strengthen EV Domestic Supply Chain appeared first on Environment + Energy Leader.
The global stampede to adopt net-zero climate goals continues unabated. As a goal net-zero is achieved when any residual carbon emissions are counter-balanced fully by dedicated carbon removal. Delivered at a global level, this would stabilise global temperatures. Almost 70% of states (accounting for 90% of the world’s economic activity) have adopted net-zero goals, as have 40% of the world’s largest companies.

Manufacturing is evolving, and the right technology can empower—not replace—your workforce. Smart automation and AI-driven software are revolutionizing decision-making, optimizing processes, and improving efficiency. But how do you implement these tools with confidence and ensure they complement human expertise rather than override it? Join industry expert Andrew Skoog as he explores how manufacturers can leverage automation to enhance operations, streamline workflows, and make smarter, data-dri

If you’re a reader of our blogs or a lover of Lake Erie, you may already know that excess amounts of fertilizer are making their way into our waterways and are a key culprit in contributing to toxic algae blooms in Lake Erie and other freshwater bodies. Some of these fertilizers are chemicals, but some are just old-fashioned manure. Using a natural fertilizer such as manure is a good practice – but there are still some rules that need to be followed to minimize negative impacts on the env

Photo by Raymond Spekking (CC BY-SA 4.0) For over a century, supporters of hydrogen energy have billed H 2 as the fuel of the future. In his 1874 novel, The Mysterious Island , Jules Verne wrote that “water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable.
The question in Brooke-Willbanks v. Flatland Mineral Fund LP, et al was which party to a Texas mineral deed would bear the burden of two previously reserved nonparticipating royalty interests. The facts Kay Brooke-Wilbanks owned a 45/100 mineral interest in 320 acres in Howard County, which is equivalent of an undivided 144-acre mineral interest. Her conveyance to Flatland was of an “undivided 72 net mineral acres in 320 acres” and was subject to subsisting oil and gas leases.
The sun is unleashing powerful outbursts that could strike Earth, but these events are far more common—and much less worrisome—than some hyped headlines suggest
On January 26, Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful and PalmettoPride announced a comprehensive joint study on the efficacy of state litter statutes and enforcement practices and procedures. This multi-state study is the first of its kind in the country and can serve as a benchmark to measure litter control enforcement efforts across the country. The two states engaged with Carson Consulting to review existing state litter laws and interview key stakeholders to evaluate the strength of the states’ curren

Are carbon calculators useful? Do they provide accurate information? How can we choose the right calculator? Earth911 begins a multi-part review of carbon tracking tools and how to use them to lower your impact. The post Choosing and Using Carbon Calculators the Right Way appeared first on Earth911.
Grinding and spreading certain types of minerals pulls carbon dioxide from the air, but it takes a lot of rock dust, land and time to see results. By Bob Berwyn One of the many possible tools to stabilize Earth’s climate by reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide had its potential better defined this week, with a new study shedding light on the effectiveness of enhanced rock weathering as a way to mitigate human-caused global warming.

A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) could be the game-changer, helping you reduce waste, cut costs, and lower your carbon footprint. Join Nikhil Joshi, Founder & President of Snic Solutions, in this value-packed webinar as he breaks down how MES can drive operational excellence and sustainability.
Rock weathering has helped keep Earth’s climate relatively stable for millions of years, but the process isn't fast enough to keep up with human carbon emissions
One family, 37 different faces. From the recognizable and familiar like foxes, wolves, African wild dogs and coyotes to the lesser-known ones like the Japanese raccoon dog, fennec fox, dholes and dingoes, canids have conquered every continent except Antarctica.

Diversity, Equity, Justice, and Inclusion (DEJI) policies, programs, and initiatives are critically important as we move forward with public and private sector climate and sustainability goals and plans. Underserved and socially, economically, and racially disadvantaged communities bear the burden of pollution, higher energy costs, limited resources, and limited investments in the clean energy and transportation sectors.

On January 26, House Republican leader Rep. Bryan Cutler (R-Lancaster) announced the appointment of Republican Committee Chairs -- Rep. Martin Causer (R-Cameron) was named Republican Chair of the House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee. Rep. Causer was prime sponsor of House Bill 2644 that Gov.

Despite low sales due to supply shortages and soaring vehicle prices in 2022, electric vehicle production is set to greatly expand in 2023. The U.S. government is aiming to phase out gas-powered cars and trucks within the next couple of decades, an ambitious, but necessary goal to curb climate change. In order to do that, new laws, including the Inflation Reduction Act, incentivize companies to produce EVs and all their components in the U.S.
On January 23, 2023, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced its annual revision of the filing thresholds under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act (HSR Act), increasing the minimum reportable transaction from $101 million to $111.4 million.
by Christopher Boone, Arizona State University and Karen C. Seto, Yale University To meet today’s global sustainability challenges, the corporate world needs more than a few chief sustainability officers – it needs an army of employees, in all areas of business, thinking about sustainability in their decisions every day.
Sustainability impacts every nation, company, and person around the world. So much so that, in 2015, the United Nations (UN) issued a call for action by all countries to work toward sustainable development. In response to this and as part of a global Sustainability at Retail initiative, Shop! worked collaboratively with its global affiliates to address these critical issues in this white paper.
by Andrew Fisher, University of California, Santa Cruz California has seen so much rain over the past few weeks that farm fields are inundated and normally dry creeks and drainage ditches have become torrents of water racing toward the ocean. Yet, most of the state remains in drought.
My family and I think octopuses are the most marvelous animals in the ocean. My daughter even dressed up as an octopus for Halloween a few years ago. We often watch The Little Mermaid on repeat and while Ursula technically has only six suckered appendages (due to animating difficulties), she technically has eight limbs total if you include her “human” arms.
