An article recently published explores the main policy and political shifts that the Paris Agreement represents, and explains why this new paradigm of international climate policy, politics and cooperation is key to accelerating the pace of change and avoiding the most catastrophic impacts of climate change.
The average person seeking climate information is likely to begin with the internet, and this quickly leads to a confusing array of very dissimilar climate information websites. A recent article reviews a representative sample of such websites from across the world, and draws out key issues for consideration in the ongoing evolution of them.
Researchers from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology design a high-performance filtration membrane made exclusively of cyclodextrin.
Young researcher studies the smells of plastic waste used in manufacturing recycled plastics.
Concept of ‘breathing glass’: The biobased poly(limonene carbonate) (PLimC) unifies sustainability, carbon capture and utilisation of carbon dioxide in one material.
Temporary rivers fluctuate between flowing, pool and dry states, making their instream habitats more dynamic and variable than those in equivalent rivers with year-round flow.
Clouds have a remarkable impact on Earth’s climate.
By synthesizing a hollow Pt/TiO2/CxNy-triazine nanocomposite, the low activity of TiO2 has been addressed.
Monitoring the quality and distribution of physical habitat parameters in rivers, such as water depth, grain size and flow velocity, is vital for species survival.
A chemistry and engineering nano-solution that aims to safeguard Earth against climate change can be imagined metaphorically as a “Life Raft” that will sustain renewable energy systems and living systems “thriving and buoyant” over the next thousand years when fully deployed around the globe.
