Opinion: How the fossil fuel lobby crowded out calls for climate justice at COP27
COP27 has just wrapped up. Despite much excitement over a new fund to address "loss and damage" caused by climate change, there is also anger about perceived backsliding on commitments to lower emissions and phase out fossil fuels......»»
Tiny Aerosols Pose a Big Predicament in a Warming World
Fossil fuels are rapidly heating the planet, but their aerosols also help cool it. Just how much, though, is a major uncertainty in climate science......»»
Building green energy facilities may produce substantial carbon emissions, says study
First, the bad news: Nothing is free. Moving the world energy system away from fossil fuels and into renewable sources will generate carbon emissions by itself, as construction of wind turbines, solar panels and other new infrastructure consumes ener.....»»
Reimagined fifth-gen Prius foreshadows new era of EV fighters

COP27 negotiatiors at odds over fossil fuel phaseout, warming mark
Negotiators from around 200 countries appeared to be struggling to reach consensus at the COP27 climate conference on Tuesday, with disagreement on the phaseout of fossil fuels and the 1.5 degrees Celsius warming mark......»»
Fundamental aspects in carbon dioxide electroreduction reaction tackled by vibrational spectroscopies
Scientists hope that the electricity generated by renewable energy can be used to convert CO2 into value-added fuels, and the stored energy in these chemicals can be released as electricity through fuel cells or other technologies. Such a practice ca.....»»
What’s the deal with Formula 1 and sustainable fuels?

CO2 pollution from fossil fuels to hit all-time high in 2022
Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels, the main driver of climate change, are on track to rise one percent in 2022 to reach an all-time high, scientists said Friday at the COP27 climate summit in Egypt......»»
New technology creates carbon neutral chemicals out of thin air
It is possible to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from the surrounding atmosphere and repurpose it into useful chemicals usually made from fossil fuels, according to a study from the University of Surrey......»»
New approach to fabricating ion-conducting ceramic membranes for stable hydrogen production
Hydrogen has attracted much attention due to its potential as a clean energy carrier. To date, the majority of hydrogen is produced from fossil fuels, such as natural gas, coal and oil. Such fossil-derived hydrogen must be purified from common contam.....»»
Novel copper gas penetration electrode can efficiently reduce CO2 to multicarbon products
Electrochemical conversion of CO2 into value-added chemical fuels driven by renewable electrical energy is a prospective strategy for addressing both CO2 emissions and energy consumption. However, the current density of CO2 to multicarbon products re.....»»
A Canadian senator aims to end the widespread financial backing of fossil fuels

COP27: Which countries will push to end fossil fuel production? And which won"t?
Fossil fuels have provided a crucial source of energy over the past 200 years. But they also account for 75 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, enable massive environmental destruction and support many brutal regimes......»»
Scientists investigate using lunar soils to sustainably supply oxygen and fuels on the moon
Building up a lunar settlement has been the ultimate aim of lunar exploitation since humanity's first step on the moon. Yet, limited fuel and oxygen supplies restrict human survival on the moon......»»
