The Cost of Sustainability for Asia is Lower than the Benefits
As one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change, Asia has virtually nothing to lose from the looming energy transition. While investments are needed, the cost of sustainability is negligible compared to what the continent stands to gain.
Steel Producers Are Slow To Reduce Emissions
Steel plays an integral role in our modern world, yet it is also known for its high rate of emissions. One way to curtail these emissions is by implementing electric arc furnaces in production. While some countries have adopted this technology, others continue to develop facilities reliant on heavy-emitting technologies. Experts believe the steel industry is falling behind and may hinder the world from reaching net-zero by 2050.
How to Reduce the Music Industry’s Climate Impact
Aside from a couple of bright examples, the music industry isn't the most vocal climate advocate. Fans, bands, tour managers, streaming companies and event organisers should team up to reduce the excessive climate impact of the industry.
2022 Heat Wave in India and Pakistan – New Scientific Report
The World Weather Attribution Indian Pakistan heatwave study is a reminder that the climate crisis grows more severe by the day.
The Economic Benefits of Renewable Energy for Asia: Crunching the Numbers
The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy in Asia will unleash massive economic benefits, including expanding the job market, ensuring steady GDP gains and hedging the unpredictable fossil fuel prices.
Promising Renewable Energy Statistics 2022 – Revealed By New Global Status Report
Despite the tremendous growth in new renewable energy additions, the energy system transformation is sluggish and fossil fuels continue to be the backbone of the global energy system. Without more engagement on the political front, global decarbonisation will remain a pipe dream.
How Google Is Tracking Global Methane Emissions and Air Pollution
Methane emissions from natural gas are rising globally, affecting the climate. Across cities, Google is now tracking where the leaks happen.
Green Steel Makes Headway in 2022 But Is It Ready To Take Off?
It has been called the “holy grail of the steel industry”, a “precious treasure” and “our new commodity”. Green steel has generated a lot of excitement lately. But, when will we see it around us?
The Economic Cost of Climate Inaction for Asia
Climate inaction will not only cause environmental damage, but it will also lead to loss of livelihoods, as well as migration and direct economic costs. Countries have long been brushing the problem under the carpet. However, its consequences are now proving to be devastating, especially to the most vulnerable.
The G7 Summit 2022: A Recap of the 48th G7 Meeting and Where Leaders Failed
Leaders at the G7 Summit 2022 have taken some good steps but also some questionable ones, leaving a huge gap to fill leading up to COP27. Whether they follow on their pledges will show if there is any chance for the world’s net-zero journey to succeed. Because so far, the signs aren’t promising.
Will Oil-Producing Countries Remain Stable in a Decarbonising World
Fossil fuel-dependent countries should be actively looking to balance the trade-off between transitioning to a renewable energy-dominated power system and maintaining a stable economy without putting pressure on society. While the goal is challenging, it is possible.
Are Exxon’s Asian Carbon Capture Intentions Genuine?
Exxon's carbon capture plans are grand. They hinge on developing an extensive CCS network centred in Singapore, connecting with the surrounding countries. Ultimately, this will facilitate the adoption of carbon capture in Southeast Asia and place Exxon at the centre of this growing market.
Does Wind Energy Have A Place In Singapore?
Singapore has grand plans for its renewable energy transition. This will primarily focus on domestic solar generation and the importation of renewable energy from neighbouring countries. Additionally, wind energy will likely have a small role to play. As low wind speed turbine technology improves, wind energy will become more viable for local generation.
