We’re chatting bioenergy today. It’s got to be a good thing, right?

Was COP26 really a cop out? Here’s the good and not-so-good outcomes.

We’ve been hearing some pretty scathing reviews of the most recent Conference Of the Parties meeting in Glasgow. But is this fair? There were some great outcomes – but yes, some which weren’t so great too. So

As with most global issues, climate change is complex. The science, the causes and consequences, and potential solutions all have a wide range of understanding. So, it’s no surprise that trying to make sense of how to transition to a more sustainable lifestyle is also very complex.

Ocean Facts and Mysteries

The ocean isn’t just beautiful to look at and listen to, and home to the most incredible living things on the planet. It is absolutely an essential part of our climate regulation system, holds one of the nine planetary boundaries we should not cross, and without it, life would cease on Planet Earth.
