As FIFA prepares for its upcoming World Cup tournaments from June 11 to July 19, 2026, its climate strategy is facing closer attention, too. The organization has set a goal to reach net zero emissions by 2040. It also aims to cut emissions by 50% by 2030. These targets are part of FIFA’s long-term sustainability […]
Europe’s climate transition is entering a new phase. In the space of a few weeks, three major developments have emerged across the continent: the launch of the first commercial robotaxi service, a historic surge in electric vehicle (EV) sales, and another drop in carbon emissions under the EU’s flagship trading system. Each story is different, […]
American EV maker Rivian and battery recycling leader Redwood Materials are showing how retired EV batteries can do more than power cars. Their new partnership at Rivian’s Illinois manufacturing plant uses second-life batteries as stationary energy storage, creating a model that could support factories, strengthen the grid, and lower electricity costs. The project starts with […]
Disseminated on behalf of Alaska Energy Metals Corporation. The electric vehicle (EV) revolution is unfolding at full speed. EV sales, battery factories, and electrification plans are all increasing rapidly across the world. But behind this clean‑energy success story lies a growing risk that few people fully grasp: the supply of high‑purity nickel — known as […]
Apple’s latest Environmental Progress Report shows a clear shift in how the company is approaching sustainability. It shows that 30 percent of materials across all products shipped in 2025 came from recycled content, up from the previous year. This represents a steady year-on-year increase of around 6% points, showing consistent progress rather than one-time gains. […]
Amazon has expanded its renewable energy portfolio in Australia to 990 MW across 20 projects. This marks a major jump from about 430 megawatts (MW) previously, driven by new agreements with multiple solar, wind, and battery projects. These include large-scale developments such as the Golden Plains wind farm and hybrid solar-battery installations built on former […]
On April 18th, Reuters reported that the U.S. direct air capture (DAC) sector received a major boost after the Department of Energy (DOE) decided to retain funding for two flagship carbon removal hubs originally backed under the Biden administration. The move removes months of uncertainty and protects more than $1 billion in federal support for […]
Corporate climate action is no longer a niche effort. It is now a core business strategy. Fresh data from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) confirms this shift. By January 2026, nearly 10,000 companies had validated science-based targets. Even more striking, over 12,000 firms had either set or committed to setting these goals by the […]
Australia’s reformed Safeguard Mechanism is reshaping how large industrial emitters manage carbon. The policy, updated in 2023, sets declining emissions limits for the country’s biggest facilities, including mining and energy operations. Companies that exceed their baselines must either cut emissions or purchase carbon credits. This has triggered a sharp rise in demand for Australian Carbon […]
