The window of opportunity to address climate change is decreasing
This article highlights climate change’s adverse impacts on humans and ecosystems, exacerbating vulnerability and global inequalities. These details are in the IPCC report. Climate risk depends on mitigation and adaptation efforts. Integrating these measures enables climate-resilient development. Maladaptation can be avoided with inclusive, long-term planning.
Carbon Emissions & the Industry
To achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, industries must understand and reduce their carbon footprint. The focus has shifted from emissions per product to absolute emissions reduction. Governments and businesses must collaborate, leveraging disruptive innovation, circular economy principles, and resource value retention frameworks to achieve balance between resource use and future planetary protection.
Et si on verdissait les ports français?
« Fixer le cap » : c’est l’ambition de la nouvelle stratégie nationale portuaire, qui s’inscrit dans le plan de relance français, afin de (re)positionner les ports relance économique et de la transition écologique. Parce que demain il n’y aura qu’une croissance: La croissance Verte Bleue La France c’est plus de 20 000 kilomètres de côtes, […]
Decarbonising Energy: Repurposing and Recycling End-of-Life Batteries
Batteries can contribute to sustainable development and climate change mitigation. But they require major changes in the value chain, from materials sourcing to end-of-life management. Europe aims to build a sustainable internal battery value chain, creating business opportunities and addressing environmental concerns through circular approaches, recycling, and repurposing.
Towards a Sustainable European Battery Value Chain
European clean energy transition regulations foster a competitive and sustainable battery industry. The EU’s new Batteries Regulation aims to modernize battery life-extension, waste collection, and material recovery while reducing hazardous substances. Europe’s electric vehicle market is growing, with legislative frameworks and the European Battery Alliance driving a sustainable value chain, focusing on raw materials, recycling, and workforce development.
