Newcastle University researchers have invented a revolutionary humidity-driven membrane that uses ambient energy to efficiently remove carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air. This innovative method addresses the essential difficulty of direct air capture (DAC), which has been named one of the “Seven Chemical Separations to Change the World.” The novel [...]
As worldwide temperatures rise, cities around the world are dealing with the issue of urban heat islands, in which concrete and asphalt amplify summer heat. A new study conducted by academics from the University of Surrey and Southeast University (China) demonstrates that rural belts around cities can dramatically lower urban [...]
Urban areas are especially vulnerable to the consequences of climate change, such as floods, heat waves, and storms. This presents critical considerations for city developers: which parts of the city suffer the most and in what ways can they respond effectively? The I4C project for Cities initiative, led by the [...]
A recent study has revealed a hopeful development in the struggle against global warming and ozone layer degradation. According to the study, cutting agricultural nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions is conceivable without interfering with the ozone layer’s recovery. This discovery is essential because N2O, a highly potent greenhouse gas, is in the environment at [...]
As temperatures in cities rise due to climate change, city developers and designers must develop effective ways to reduce urban heat. A recent study headed by UCL (University College London) academics, released in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, sheds fresh light on how various urban heat management systems affect city [...]
In a recent publication published in Science, researchers from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) described a new wearable fabric meant to help urban inhabitants cope with the extreme heat induced by global climate change. This innovative fabric has the potential to be used not just [...]
The Biden administration has unveiled an ambitious plan to address those critical problems amid growing worries over the effects of climate change and environmental damage. President Biden has demonstrated an enhanced dedication to environmental stability and safety through several executive orders, administrative acts, and legislative proposals. Below explore the potential effects of ten key environmental laws that the [...]
In an unprecedented move, three of the world’s largest health funders have joined hands in a monumental $300 million partnership aimed at addressing the intertwined issues of climate change, malnutrition, infectious diseases, and antimicrobial resistance. The Novo Nordisk Foundation, Wellcome, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have come together with a common goal [...]
In response to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) pioneering environmental disclosure regulations, Zoetic Global is dedicated to guiding companies through this new landscape. These rules mandate disclosures encompassing emissions, climate change impacts, and carbon offset utilization, signaling a significant shift in corporate reporting requirements. Zoetic Global recognizes the dual [...]
In light of the European Union’s environmental watchdog’s stark warning regarding the escalating risks of climate change, the European Commission has responded with a comprehensive strategy to address the profound challenges confronting Europe. This strategic initiative arrives amidst mounting apprehensions over the continent’s rapid warming, underscored by recent climate extremes [...]
