Electric vans are significantly cheaper to run than their traditional diesel counterparts, costing just a fifth of what it would cost a diesel van per mile.
Permafrost in the rapidly melting Arctic will probably release as much carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere as a large industrial nation by the end of this century, preferably more than the United States has emitted since the beginning of the industrial revolution.
In the past several years, hydrogen energy has increasingly become a more central aspect of the clean energy transition. Hydrogen can produce clean, on-demand energy that could complement variable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power.
A new study from the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), Colorado State University, and the National Park Service indicates previously unknown high altitude contests between two of America's most sensational mammals – mountain goats and bighorn sheep – over access to minerals previously unavailable due to the past presence of glaciers which, now, are vanishing due to global warming.
Argonne uses multidisciplinary expertise and preeminent high performance computing facilities to explore the potential of nuclear energy. Here are five fission-centric forays into the potential of nuclear energy.
Thawing permafrost soils in the rapidly warming Arctic will emit as much greenhouse gas as large industrial nations by the end of this century, according to a University of Alberta researcher involved in an international study that stresses to policy makers that it's not too late to act to stabilize the climate and avoid exceeding temperature targets.
A new analysis led by researchers with the University of California has found the 2020 wildfires in the state, the most disastrous wildfire year on record, put twice as much greenhouse gas emissions into the Earth's atmosphere as the total reduction in such pollutants in California between 2003-2019.
North Carolina State University scientists have devised a dynamic computational tool to aid in improving user access to electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, with the objective of making EVs more appealing to drivers.
Arganic chemical substances produced by metabolism, called metabolites or exudates, differ greatly between coral species and have varied influences on the abundances and compositions of reef organisms.
Flinders University materials researchers and pioneering German biomaterials developer one • five are using seaweed extracts to develop next-generation biopolymer coating materials that could solve packaging waste dilemmas for the fast-food industry.
Researchers from ETH Zurich have developed a new method for tracking and measuring how polymer biodegrades, if at all, in soil.

Beam Global, the leading provider of innovative sustainable products and technologies for electric vehicle (EV) charging, energy storage, energy security and outdoor media, announced that a nuclear waste management federal contractor has ordered multiple EV ARC sustainable charging systems and an ARC Mobility™ trailer for efficient system transport.
Sea levels are rising due to climate change as land ice melts and oceans expand. The occurrence of glacier calving incidents will influence how much and how quickly sea levels rise in the near future.
Scientists are attempting to overcome some of the major constraints of existing lithium-ion battery technology, which employs a graphite anode and a lithium-based transition metal oxide cathode, as electric vehicles and personal portable gadgets grow more prevalent.
Envetec Sustainable Technologies Limited ("Envetec"), the world's first and only cleantech company with validated technology dedicated to treating and eradicating biohazardous laboratory waste and material, today announced independent data showing GENERATIONS' ™ (1) ability to reduce Green House Gas (GHG) emissions by over 90%, compared to commonly used treatment approaches. GENERATIONS is a climate-friendly technology that safely treats biohazardous waste and materials, including plastics, glass, PPE, sharps containers, and other general laboratory consumables onsite at the source.
