Ben Geman of Axios reports on a new climate venture capital fund. “Earthshot’s ties to Hawaii- and Alaska-based organizations will ‘bring real-world experience and insight deploying technologies in communities on the front lines of climate change,’ the announcement states.” Read the full article here.
"While we cannot stop at natural climate solutions and must continue building a consensus for clean energy and other solutions, the beauty of nature-based solutions is that they serve many purposes to many stakeholders and can be enacted right now."
"The Climeworks plant is composed of eight so-called air collection containers, which are stacked two high and arranged like a bracket around a central processing building. The containers have fans on one side, intake vents on the other and carbon-capturing filters in between. They are connected to the building by a series of steel pipes."
"Fuel-cell and battery-powered vehicles are both electric, sharing the same motors and many other components. The key difference is batteries store electricity and fuel cells make it onboard as needed, in an electrochemical process that extracts electrons from hydrogen forced through fuel-cell membranes. Aside from electricity, the only byproduct is water vapor."
"Sure, we need lithium-ion batteries in our everyday lives. But we cannot solely rely on them to support the grid. The solution here is a deeply American one: innovate our way to affordable new technology that can be exported around the world, helping both our economy and the environment."
C3 Solutions makes the case for reforming the National Flood Insurance Program. “The federal government must reform its coastal resilience efforts and natural disaster policies to better adapt. One of the largest policies in need of reform is the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP, operated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), is...
C3 Solutions provides a premier of climate science in Climate Change 101. “Conservatives have long been skeptical about climate action. Alarmist environmentalists have tried to use it to push their broader political and economic agendas at the expense of actually addressing the problem. Yet, it is a real issue, and one that we cannot afford...
"Carbon capture is an important technology that can significantly reduce emissions from energy, transportation, and industrial manufacturing. Carbon capture reduces these emissions by either capturing carbon at the source (i.e. when polluting activities take place) or pulling it directly from the open atmosphere to reduce our overall footprint.
"Rare earth elements (REE) are 17 natural elements that have become essential to America’s national security and economic prosperity. REE are needed to manufacture a multitude of products, including cell phones, batteries, airplanes, solar panels, satellites, and military technology, among many others."
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) is a comprehensive law that requires all federal infrastructure and energy projects to undergo an environmental assessment and environmental impact study (EIS) in order for the project to be completed.
