The might of metals in the clean energy transition
“Green businesses could find big opportunity in focusing on a clean metals’ solution. Investors too can play a part by embracing and backing cleaner, greener minerals extraction concerns.”
EVs Are the Lowest Climate Priority
Holman W. Jenkins argues on The Wall Street Journal that electric vehicles should be the lowest climate priority. “EVs are wonderful for many reasons but not for the reasons that climate-sanctimonious politicians promote. I won’t repeat an earlier column on climate policies that might actually be worth pursuing. Notice that the one innovation that greens opposed, fracking,...
Bill Gates-Led Fund Backs Tech to Use Natural Gas Without the Carbon Impact
"The company has developed technology to lower the greenhouse-gas emissions from using natural gas. Instead of burning the fuel to produce carbon dioxide and water, C-Zero passes the gas through a mixture of molten salts."
How to Transform Garbage Into Greener Fuels
“The newer, cleaner process, known as waste gasification or pyrolysis, involves cutting and drying non-recyclable trash from homes and offices, such as packaging and bottles, before blasting it with 4,000-degree-Fahrenheit steam and oxygen to break it down into hydrogen and carbon monoxide."
Policies Come And Policies Go, But The Market Is In The Driver’s Seat
“Yet while these politically-motivated moves appear to be driving our energy policy, lurching first one way, then another, energy researchers say the reality is that markets and emerging technologies are both pushing towards a carbon-free future, regardless of U.S. domestic energy policy.”
Clean Energy Manufacturing Should be Done in America, Not China
A strong U.S. industrial sector is essential to ensuring new technologies invented in the U.S. can be manufactured domestically, rather than in China, which would result in more jobs and fewer carbon dioxide emissions.
Brewery’s Restoration Efforts a Win for Local Community and the Environment
SingleSpeed has made strides in reducing the building’s carbon footprint by offsetting brewery operations with rooftop solar panels and by installing electric vehicle charging stations in the restaurant's parking lot.

The spiralling environmental cost of our lithium battery addiction
“In a recent paper in the journal Nature, Yushin and his co-authors argued that new battery technology needs to be developed that uses more common, and environmentally friendly materials to make batteries. Researchers are working on new battery chemistries that replace cobalt and lithium with more common and less toxic materials.”
