In Japan, heat-resilient biofertilizers could help crops cope with rising temperatures but engineering them has been slow and uncertain. A new study at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) shows that pairing experimental evolution with controlled gamma-ray mutagenesis can accelerate the path to heat-tolerant nitrogen-fixing bacteria, shortening development timelines and opening practical […]
In Washigton state, state leaders, aviation industry partners, research institutions, Tribal representatives and sustainability advocates launched the Cascadia Sustainable Aviation Accelerator (CSAA). Announced at the Boeing Future of Flight, the initiative is the most comprehensive and well-funded across the region of its kind to accelerate the production, deployment and adoption of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). […]
In Denmark, the Financial Times reports the CEO of Maersk hopes that by focusing on ethanol as a way to decarbonize shipping that in turn stands to benefit US and Brazilian farmers, versus green methanol where China would be the biggest winner, climate sceptics such as US President Trump might be swayed to support green […]
