"CarbonBuilt spun out of UCLA’s engineering school in 2019. In May, the company began commercial production of its sustainable concrete at a partner facility in Alabama, where an on-site biomass furnace captures and supplies CO2. The company says it now plans to produce its Portland-cement-free blocks at 'commercial volume' in Alabama starting in 2024."
“If we are serious about addressing climate change, then the future of energy must be clean. With carbon-free electricity sources like nuclear, we can power our way of life, reduce emissions, and save the planet.”
"Most importantly, trade, in the climate change era, allows economies with relatively clean sources of energy to specialize in energy-intensive goods and services. It is essential both to shift the footprint of global production to where things can be made at the least cost to the environment and to allow the dirtier producers in the developing world to acquire technologies — mostly originated in richer nations — that will enable them to reduce their emissions, too."
Leaders at COP28 should focus on making the lives innovators easier if they are serious about hitting any targets in the future.
As World Nuclear News marks, a new report by the Flexible Nuclear Campaign for Nuclear-Renewables Integration urges that policymakers act now on nuclear energy.
Economic freedom can help countries increase water access and improve lives around the world.
“The adverse economic effects of a net-zero policy, even in its narrower dimension, would be huge, emerging sooner rather than later, and carrying with them serious political impacts. My estimate of the direct cost of only the electricity component of the Green New Deal is about a half trillion dollars per year, or about $4,000 annually per U.S. household, and that is based on a set of highly conservative assumptions.”
"From protecting standing forests to planting new trees, forests offer significant climate mitigation benefits. "
"There are three aspects of sustainability that must be considered to assure the future of a livestock operation: namely ecological, financial and social. The ability to find balance between and progression within each of these three aspects determines in large part the viability and long-term success of any agriculture and livestock production."
“We need to start with agreement on a key point, already recognized by many in the energy sphere: All forms of energy must be in the discussion. It's not about loving or hating a specific fuel, whether that's hydrocarbons or wind and solar. It's about reducing and eliminating emissions.”
