The Tire Recycling Foundation (TRF) announced the finalists in the Foundation’s inaugural Circle of Change Awards – a national recognition program created to spotlight the people, organizations, and teams advancing tire recycling, expanding markets for recycled tire products, and demonstrating leadership in the circular economy.
New research suggests constructing a simple building from interlocking subunits should be mechanically feasible and have a much smaller carbon footprint.
Australia’s recurring fuel shocks are a warning. They show how exposed households, businesses, and the broader economy remain to imported fuel, global price volatility, and supply chain disruption.
The way we shop is about to change.
Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence Business Area today unveiled new laser-guided solutions that make it possible – in some cases for the first time – to automate inaccessible and large-scale quality inspections in labor-intensive operations such as aircraft assembly, shipbuilding and wind turbine manufacturing.
Earth Day has always been a moment for reflection. But 2026 has it feeling more like a deadline.
AnalytiChem, manufacturer of specialized laboratory equipment, reagents and consumables, has launched a Trace Metal Certification for its polypropylene DigiTUBE™ disposable digestion tubes, complementing its existing Volume Certification.

Limes Renewable Energy, a global developer specializing in solar, wind and battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, has successfully secured the environmental permit for its BESS Ganso project in Chile’s Valparaíso Region (150 MW / 5 h).
A Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas working paper finds that data centers are reversing two decades of flat U.S. electricity demand, with existing facilities already raising modeled wholesale power prices by 2% to 6% nationwide and much more in major data center hubs.
It also projects that if proposed build-outs proceed under high-utilization scenarios, wholesale electricity prices could rise by about 50% by 2028, with slower wind and solar expansion making those effects even larger.

Researchers designed and optimized a grid-connected hybrid energy storage system that combines solar PV, batteries, and hydrogen technologies to power a data center in Nantes, France. The simulation-based study found that a 5 kW electrolyzer, 2 kW fuel cell, 200 L hydrogen tank, and 50 kWh battery could achieve about 95% self-sufficiency with major carbon savings, though at a higher cost than grid electricity.
