"Interestingly, concrete which is primarily made using portland cement, water, and gravel is considered the most consumed material across the globe next to water. Whether it is North America, Europe, or Asia, construction activities can not be imagined without concrete and especially portland cement."
Wastewater recycling startup CEO says we need to overhaul our ‘flush and forget’ society
“'We are capturing all the dirty water that you would normally send into the sewer, and we’re turning that into clean water, into soil, and into recovered wastewater heat,' said CEO Aaron Tartakovsky. 'We are helping these buildings to recycle up to 95% of their water so that is 95% less fresh drinking water we have to pull in from the city supply, and we can instead recycle water right on site, right where it’s produced.'"
UK’s Magical Mushroom Company uses mycelium to replace plastic packaging
"The latest to join the ranks is Magical Mushroom Company (MMC). It’s now raised a £3 million seed round led by Ecovative Design LLC with participation by Dale Vince, founder of Ecotricity (a green energy company in the U.K.); Robert Del Naja (activist); and Marcus Watson, co-founder of Adoreum Partners, who brought 30 other investors."
Airbus just executed the world’s first 100% sustainable aviation fuel helicopter flight
"Looking further ahead, Airbus also announced zero-emissions hydrogen concept aircraft as it aims for a future of greatly reduced carbon emissions. Other companies, including Rolls-Royce, are also running SAF tests in a bid to help the aviation industry play its part in the face of catastrophic climate change."
History and Future of Nuclear Energy
"The future of nuclear power is exciting, hopeful, and integral for reaching the worldwide goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050."
To cut emissions, use this Swiss Army Knife
"The more everyone gets excited about the many benefits of clean hydrogen, the faster businesses and governments will put in the work to make it a real alternative to fossil fuels. That’s how we avoid a climate disaster."
More funding for fusion: Seattle startup lands $160M and reveals technology breakthrough
"The company estimates that it needs to produce 650 kA (kiloampere) of current to get there. At this point they’ve reached 500 kA, which represents significant progress. When the team got its start at the University of Washington, they were producing about 50 kA (a bolt of lightning, by comparison, is about 30 kA)."
Is Moss A Climate Change Superhero In Disguise?
"Sänger says the combination of technology and biology has multiple benefits. The main benefit is that unlike traditional air filters, mosses effectively digests fine dust particles, which remain in the moss filters for a long time. When mosses appear to be too stressed they are exchanged, and brought back to Green City Solutions form to regenerate, before being sent out again."
Robotic Agriculture Has Arrived
Above all, the arrival of robotics into farming practices is set to result in the provision of extremely accurate production data, reducing the need to apply herbicides on a large-scale basis, and monitoring environmental factors relating to climate change.
Meet the Company Taking on Concrete’s Carbon Footprint
"During manufacturing, a batch of Solidia concrete absorbs CO2 so voraciously that if you listen to the gas entering the curing chamber, you'll hear a hissing noise. 'The mix literally inhales carbon dioxide, like a human would inhale air,' says Riman."
