"The drone can plant one hectare in two hours and needs between 2,000 to 5,000 balls, depending on the type of seeds."

American Energy Is Clean Energy. It’s Time to Admit It.
"BRG’s report builds on what we already know: American LNG provides a cleaner alternative to countries across the world, ensuring energy security while mitigating emissions. Biden’s attack on this critical energy source is a misinformed policy that must immediately be revoked."
Scientists develop proof-of-concept device that uses air pollution to produce electricity
"Or, dreaming even bigger, it could be integrated into an industrial carbon capture plant, which would help cool the plant and also remove harmful pollutants from the air that contribute to human health concerns such as asthma, per the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America."
Tidal Vision, a startup turning crab shells into a green industrial chemical, is raising fresh cash
"The material is something of a wonder ingredient and can be used in water purification, to preserve produce, to promote plant growth, as a flame retardant in fabrics, and in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. It offers a safe alternative to toxic chemicals, metals, petroleum products and pesticides used in industry."
Albertsons reduces food waste by thinking about what happens at home: ‘That’s where the power of the opportunity is’
"'So there's all of these examples where this is good business. In fact, we would do these things for our business regardless of whether they were better for the planet or our communities — but what a wonderful thing that they are better for both.'"
Solar power poised for even greater breakthroughs
"Starting over a decade ago, the institute set up hundreds of sunlight sensors across the city state and began continuously measuring irradiance, the amount of sunlight that makes it to Earth as clouds come and go. Those measurements now constitute a massive data record that researchers, and Singapore power generators and grid operators, use to predict solar power output five minutes to seven hours ahead."
Australian Startup Mimics Trees to Make Cheaper Green Hydrogen
"The machines apply electricity to water and split the compound into its constituent elements of hydrogen and oxygen. It’s quite easy to make an electrolyzer at home that generates small quantities of hydrogen. All you need is two pieces of solid metal, some wire, salty water and a source of electricity."
Startup raises $26.5 million for vaccine to stop cow farts and burps
"Methane is much more potent than is carbon dioxide, in terms of its trapping atmospheric heat, although it also dissipates down faster."
Exxon Makes a Long-Shot Bet on Climate Tech. Sizing Up the Costs.
"Unlike many of the climate-related projects Exxon is undertaking, this plant is highly experimental. Exxon has previously said that its low-carbon businesses like biofuels and lithium-mining need to make double-digit returns. Direct air capture, by comparison, is more of a space-age science experiment for now—one that may pay off or fade away. The company isn’t disclosing how much it’s spending on the project."
Biden’s Tariffs Are a Bad Idea
"It is a decision that reflects the muddled economic thinking that has defined Biden's time in office. It is a promise to raise taxes on Americans who want to purchase products the president disfavors, one that cuts directly against the same president's own environmental goals, all wrapped up inside silly election-year rhetoric."
