As countries try to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels and slow climate change, scientists see biofuels as a partial answer.

What environmental price should the world be willing to pay for the metals needed to switch to electric vehicles?

In the wake of a new White House report on the climate implications of energy-hogging cryptocurrency mining, Cornell Engineering research suggests that providing green policy incentives for carbon capture and renewable energy should help such mining operations reduce their carbon footprints.

The poles are warming several times faster than the global average, causing record smashing heatwaves that were reported earlier this year in both the Arctic and Antarctic. 

Transitioning to a decarbonised energy system by around 2050 is expected to save the world at least $12 trillion compared to continuing our current levels of fossil fuel use.

Last year, from summer into fall, much of Europe experienced what’s known as a “wind drought.”

Of all known planets, Earth is as friendly to life as any planet could possibly be — or is it? 

Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) is largely involved in a new battery recycling project.

Lancaster University Professor Roger Kemp is part of a team evaluating policy options for incorporating hydrogen into the UK’s energy systems.

To limit global warming to within 2°C above pre-industrial levels, many are putting their hopes on the world’s abundant supply of biomass – materials like wood and wood residues, energy crops, and agricultural remnants – to deploy large-scale bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), the use of which is also assumed to increase considerably in the future.
