Google’s latest environmental report reveals the true cost of AI development. Continue reading Google’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Increased by 48% Since 2019, Thanks to AI Pursuits
Regardless of what you may think of insects – if you even think about them at all – they make up around 90% of animal species on the planet and without them we’d see the collapse of ocean and land ecosystems that could ultimately lead to the end of all… Continue reading The sky-high mountain superhighway used by billions of tiny travelers
Concrete and steel production are major sources of CO2 emissions, but a new solution from Cambridge could recycle both at the same time. Throwing old concrete into steel-processing furnaces not only purifies iron but produces “reactivated cement” as a … Continue reading ‘Absolute miracle’ breakthrough provides recipe for zero-carbon cement
For the first time, a large team of scientists from across North America has formed a clear picture of Alaska’s ‘rusting’ rivers and streams, closely tracking 75 areas in the remote Brooks Range that are flushed with the bizarre hue so bright it’s even… Continue reading Alaska’s technicolor rivers are rapidly spreading – and we now know why
Scientists have demonstrated a creative solution to plastic pollution, one of our most pressing environmental problems. Plastic was embedded with spores of plastic-eating bacteria that are activated when dumped in landfill, biodegrading 90% of the mate… Continue reading Plastic embedded with plastic-eating spores is degradable – and tougher
The world’s first commercial-scale factory for making nutrient-rich and versatile protein from air and sustainable energy has opened its doors in Finland, and the startup behind it aims to have its microbe-made food out in the US later this year. Solar… Continue reading Superfood protein pulled out of thin air massively scales up production
Though streaming accounts for most of our music consumption, sales of vinyl records have been on the rise for a few years now. But the plastic used to create them is bad news for the enviro-conscious listener. A UK startup is hoping to change that by p… Continue reading Startup spins out plant-based alternative to PVC in vinyl records
Figuring out what the Earth’s climate is going to do at any given point is a difficult task. To know how it will react to given events, you need to …read more Continue reading Measuring Trees Via Satellite Actually Takes A Great Deal of Field Work
In a move that will make some stomachs growl and others turn, Korean scientists have taken muscle and fat stem cells from cows and transplanted them into grains of rice. The end result is a new, high-protein food that should be cheap, environmentally f… Continue reading Scientists grow beef cells in rice to make new protein-rich space food
Researchers have developed a simplified, sustainable method of converting sewage sludge from wastewater treatment into high-value activated carbon that can be used in a wide range of industrial and residential applications.Continue ReadingCategory: Mat… Continue reading Sustainable process turns sewage sludge into high-value activated carbon
