Renewable Natural Gas
Natural gas is a fossil fuel, extracted from under the ground. While natural gas emits CO2 when combusted for heating or power generation, its CO2 emissions are only about 50% that of coal and about 80% that of gasoline or diesel. This is why natural gas is considered to be a transition fuel on the journey to Net Zero – […]

Meta, BoA & BCG join collective for sustainable aviation biofuels
So, some of the largest corporates in the world are collaborating to buy sustainable aviation fuels (SAF). But what is SAF, and why is it important? Aviation accounts for about 2% of all global CO2 emissions. Being a sector where green branding is perhaps a bit more important than for many other sectors, airlines have been trying to significantly reduce […]

Coal is thought to be one of the key villains in our fight against climate change. And for a reason – almost 30% of all the global CO2 emissions come from power generation, and coal-based power plants contribute a dominant share of these emissions. While countries are trying to cut down on coal-based power and increase power from renewable energy […]

Down in biofuels, will algae succeed with concrete?
Biofuels from microalgae has reached a dead end, at least for now. Could concrete from algae have a rosier future? In contrast to traditional Portland cement, the startup Prometheus Materials’ microalgae-based bio-cement emits little CO2, recycles 95% of water used for production, and presents the potential of sequestering the carbon captured during its growth.
