The international maritime organization aims to reduce CO2 emissions from the maritime industry by at least 50% by the year ending 2050. This article looks at Artemis Technologies' solutions which enable the design and development of emission-free vessels.
There are around 200 known electrified aircraft projects in development at the moment, all racing to bring the next generation of sustainable air travel to the market. In September 2021, British engineering leader, Rolls-Royce, recorded the first flight of its all-electric aircraft, “Spirit of Innovation.”
AZoCleantech speaks to Dr. Ken Chiang from RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. Chiang explains how his team instantly converted CO2 into a solid in a ground-breaking study.

In the Southwest corner of Australia, there is an ecological hotspot rich with endemic species. There are pockets of fragile and ecologically important habitats that are under increased strain. Gondwana Link is helping to weave webs of connectivity to restore these ecosystems and protect threatened endemic species.

Advances in carbon capture technologies form keystones in reducing industrial CO2 emissions amidst the incoming climate crisis. This article looks at the different types of carbon capture technologies and a new amine-based absorption system that could capture 99% of CO2 from post-combustion flue gas using a simulated system.

Africa Wood Grow began in 2010 to re-green degraded farmland, prevent erosion, protect topsoils, and support the livelihoods of farmers. The initiative is much more than a soil conservation project or a water conservation project. It works with the community to increase food security in the region and improve the health and nutrition of local people via the proper use of soils and water.

According to a study published in Nature, in comparison with the global estimated tree population prior to deforestation, the current global tree population is 46% less than it once was. A number of reforestation projects are being initiated by organizations worldwide to address the growing issue of degraded forests, protect the world’s biodiversity, and help mitigate climate change.
