One of the biggest deals any company has made to date to draw down carbon dioxide emissions
Microsoft just backed a big plan to capture carbon dioxide emissions from a wood-burning power plant. Today, the tech giant announced a deal with Danish energy company Ørsted to purchase credits representing 2.76 million metric tons of carbon dioxide captured at Ørsted’s Asnæs Power Station over 11 years.

A study about water purification using reverse osmosis published in April, proved that the once-frustrating assumption about how water moves through a membrane is, indeed, wrong
Elimelech’s team replace it with a “solution-friction” theory that water molecules travel in clusters through tiny, transient pores within the polymer, which exert friction on them as they pass through. The physics of that friction matter, because understanding it could help people design membrane materials or structures that make desalination more efficient or better at screening out undesirable chemicals

Uplifting look at improvement in solar power generation price and technology combine with synthetic fuel

... the solar cost threshold of interest? One barrel of oil contains about 1.7 MWh of chemical energy. Synthesizing a barrel of oil requires about 5.7 MWh of electricity at 30% conversion efficiency. Crude oil prices are between $60 and $100/barrel, indicating cost parity at between $10 and $17/MWh. There are already solar farms installed in some places that sell power at these prices, and between now and 2030 solar costs should come down at least another 60%

GMO food testing by Bashir
Bank biodiversity awareness demanded by governments after covid
Last year, the world’s 50 biggest banks provided $2.6tn (£1.9tn) in loans and other credit to sectors with a high impact on biodiversity, such as forestry and agriculture. Bank by bank, the report authors found a cavalier ignorance of – or indifference to – the implications, with the vast majority unaware of their impact on biodiversity ... the World Economic Forum (WEF)... found that for the first time environmental risks dominated perceived business threats. ... Smart financial institutions are aware that biodiversity regulation is coming.
