Study: EVs are hundreds of times less wasteful than gas models
Electric vehicles eliminate the harmful emissions of their gas and diesel-powered counterparts, but there is still environmental concern regarding the raw materials used in their production, specifically in batteries. While battery circularity is improving, a new study has found … [Read more...] about Study: EVs are hundreds of times less wasteful than gas models
Northeastern project shows how green infrastructure saves lives and money
We all know that biking and walking are good for our physical health, but it turns out the benefits of promoting these healthy transportation options go far beyond personal health and wellness. A new study analyzing the health and economic benefits of a proposed green … [Read more...] about Northeastern project shows how green infrastructure saves lives and money
Scientists engineer plane component that cuts NOx emissions by 95%
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are one of the biggest contributors to air pollution and have been associated with a variety of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Research shows that the aviation industry’s share of total NOx emissions contributes to an estimated 16,000 premature … [Read more...] about Scientists engineer plane component that cuts NOx emissions by 95%
This zero-emission hydrogen ferry will help clean up the marine industry
Maritime transport is responsible for about 2.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, emitting around 940 million tons of CO2 annually. As the industry seeks to transition to zero-carbon fuels, hydrogen is emerging as a promising candidate. One of the most interesting … [Read more...] about This zero-emission hydrogen ferry will help clean up the marine industry
