"Instead, Stone says, the results point the way to a much bigger role for small producers. Gardens and small farms can create a food system that’s more resilient, less wasteful and better for the climate and communities while complementing the massive productivity made possible by conventional agriculture."

"By 2050, almost 70% of the world’s population will live in cities — and nearly 1,000 cities will see their average high temperatures reach or surpass 35C during summer months. That’s triple the number of cities experiencing those kinds of temperatures today, and alarming evidence of extreme heat’s growing impact on the viability of urban areas."

"She added that since launching, Mycocycle has treated 12,000 pounds of material via paid pilots, as well as with building owners and contractors like META and Lendlease who are focused on reduction of Scope 3 emissions and innovations within their industries."

"After six days of catalysis in the laboratory, a piece of a wind turbine blade was dissolved into intact glass fibers and bisphenol A, which can be used in the production of new blades – in addition to a fraction of various oligomers, which cannot be recycled. The metal piece was cast into the wing as part of the wind turbine’s lightning protection."

Lisa Stiffler of GeekWire reports on a startup that measures corporate emissions. “If corporations had more accurate scope 3 data, they could optimize their efforts to reduce emissions and adjust supply chain operations, which could shave 7% off global emissions, Chalat said, citing research.” Read the full article here.

"If climate advocates claim to value local knowledge, indigenous communities or even basic math, calling these back-to-back announcements anything other than a win is pure hypocrisy."

Elijah Gullett writes in RealClearEnergy about the latest UN climate change report. “The IPCC report will undoubtedly produce more doomsday headlines in the coming weeks, but rather than embrace despair, we should use the IPCC’s insights to prepare for climate challenges. We have all the tools we need to combat climate change: human ingenuity and...

"TerraPower Isotopes aims to bring a scalable solution to the precision medicine market. The proven production methods that TPI employs, along with the vital work of public and private partners, will establish a reliable supply of Actinium-225, and the delivery of this key isotopic starting material to drug developers. This enhanced Actinium-225 supply chain will enable the advancement of drug development trials and increase the research and deployment of advanced cancer treatment options."

"What Sound Agriculture did, Bayer explains, was develop a solution made up of pieces of the tomato’s own DNA that, when a plant is alive, helps to guide particular genes to turn themselves on or off. In this case, they selected bits of the plant DNA that regulated the cell walls of the tomato. The company soaked the tomato seeds in this solution as they started to germinate, locking in the gene expression pathway."
