"The oldest and most experienced environmentalists often aren’t lauded for their efforts to steward our planet. Farmers have been bettering our planet since before it was cool, and they have been improving their methods and prioritizing sustainability for centuries through natural solutions, such as the deployment of no-till crops and voluntary participation in carbon markets."
"According to Lux Research, IT’s largest companies have set goals of becoming carbon neutral by 2030. To reach that goal, the sector will need to add a minimum of 40 GW (gigaWatt) of renewable energy generation capacity, or 20 GW of nuclear, or 30 GW of mixed, in the next nine years."
If we truly care about protecting species from extinction, we shouldn’t be afraid to ask: Does the Endangered Species Act actually do its job?
By producing more food with fewer resources, upcycled foods ensure that land and other valuable inputs like water and human capital are not squandered.
"At Microsoft we have a long-term vision that we refer to as 100/100/0 – that on all the world’s grids, 100 percent of electrons, 100 percent of the time, are generated from zero carbon sources."
"In 2020, renewable energy sources (including wind, hydroelectric, solar, biomass, and geothermal energy) generated a record 834 billion kilowatthours (kWh) of electricity, or about 21% of all the electricity generated in the United States."
"The backlog of forest restoration projects suggests that there are issues on public lands that really need to be addressed, but that is not an argument for creating a vast new federal bureaucracy with as many as 1.5 million government employees. Public projects, such as roads, ports, schools, sewers, and dikes, are usually built by private companies, not by a new Civilian Construction Corps."
"Anheuser-Busch aims to have 100% of its packaging made from majority recycled content or returnable content by the end of 2025. One recent effort includes its move to bring its products to market in cans made from low-carbon aluminum that meets industry-leading sustainability standards."
"The companies chose Australia because the country is well endowed with the right materials needed for EVs, and it has high labor and environmental standards, House said."
"Iron Ox grows plants under natural sunlight, leveraging photosynthesis — the 3-billion-year-old process by which plants use energy from the sun to turn atmospheric CO2 into plant biomass, and the most scalable carbon capture technology on Earth."
