A team of researchers established that approximately half of all trees planted to restore tropical forests in Asia do not survive beyond five years. The researchers included experts from 29 universities and research centers who analyzed data from 176 forest restoration sites in tropical and subtropical Asia. Most of the sites under study included those where human activities had led to a decline in tree numbers.

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.

A magnetic field can help enhance the generation of synthetic biogas, according to new research. Elecroactive biofilms form on a porous conductive material, TiO2-FNi. The researchers investigated the effects of a static magnetic field (SMF) in the presence of the additive titanium dioxide-foamed nickel (TiO2-FNi). It exhibits bioaffinity for the relevant methanogens during the anaerobic digestion and methanation of corn stover (which comprises the leaves, stalks, and cobs of corn).
