Recovering forests regain a quarter of carbon lost from deforestation
Envirotec Magazine
MARCH 27, 2023
Tropical forests are vital ecosystems in the fight against climate change. Yet vast areas of forest are still degraded or lost through deforestation and environmental changes, despite many countries pledging forest restoration. A new study , that uses satellite data from ESA’s Climate Change Initiative, seems to reveal that recovering forests only successfully combat a quarter of the current carbon emissions.
Electrofuels Are the Future: The Driving Force to Decarbonizing Heavy Transport
Speaker: Ayesha Choudhury - Senior Vice President, Head of Capital Markets at Infinium
With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.

Light trapped in a water droplet could help measure pollutants
Envirotec Magazine
MARCH 27, 2023
When a beam of light is shone into a water droplet, the light is trapped inside (image credit: Javier Tello Marmolejo). Shining light on a water droplet creates an effect that is useful for exploring the properties of individual atoms, and may also help with measuring water quality, and detecting small amounts of pollutants. A study about the technique was published in Physical Review Letters.
