“Climate policy must also move beyond the singular designs of a historic environmental movement dominated by liberal constituencies that often focus on regulations above a more sustainable legislative consensus."
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."
Elon Musk Is Offering $100M In Prizes for Carbon Removal
Private industry and individual innovators should be leaders in our work to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change.
Rule by Regulation
Andrew Stuttaford of National Review analyzes the Biden administration’s rule by regulation approach to clean energy and climate change. “The real aim of the emerging central-bank game is two-fold. Firstly, to increase the cost of capital for climate sinners by ‘discouraging’ banks from lending to them and secondly, by mandating disclosure of such risks (and...
How the GOP Can Reverse the Progressive Advance
"On climate, for instance, Republicans have easy openings. The Green New Deal is an unworkably heavy-handed, top-down, 'more government' proposal that won’t work. For starters, 'the science' tells us carbon dioxide doesn’t respect borders. Ending all emissions in the U.S. would do almost nothing to lower global temperatures as long as China is building new coal plants. The answer is more innovation, less government and trusting markets over mandates."
Why lithium-ion batteries are so important
David Roberts outlines the importance of lithium-ion batteries on Canary Media. “Cheap batteries could open up uses we haven’t even envisioned yet. What sorts of urban mobility vehicles, drones, planes or research outposts could we power? What kinds of ships or trains could we electrify? How could increasingly cheap, ubiquitous storage be coupled with increasingly...
Taking the ‘forever’ out of ‘forever chemicals’ — groundbreaking PFAS destruction technology offers hope
Battelle, a global research and development organization, has been conducting comprehensive PFAS research for many years and has pioneered numerous assessment and mitigation solutions, including a new PFAS Annihilator destruction technology that will permanently remove PFAS from a site."
How Japan’s Big Bet on Hydrogen Could Revolutionize the Energy Market
"Hydrogen has key advantages. One is that it can be used in modified versions of existing power plants and other machinery designed to run on coal, gas or oil. That will help countries avoid scrapping billions of dollars of legacy assets as they transition to a new-energy future."
U.S. Steel, Norway’s Equinor eye clean hydrogen production
"The companies have signed a memorandum of understanding to assess the technological and commercial possibilities for hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS) and screen potential customers and suppliers."
Boeing, Alaska Airlines, & NOAA Team Up To Measure Greenhouse Gases Mid-Flight
The Alaska Airlines airplane will also be testing other new equipment as part of the ecoDemonstrator program. This will include a new agent for extinguishing fires, which could offer a reduced negative impact on the ozone layer and potentially replace the commonly used Halon 1301.
