The voluntary carbon market has a credibility problem that is no longer contained to specialized environmental circles.

BioMADE is backing 14 projects with $21.4M in funding. The focus is practical: recover critical materials, improve bio-based production and train workers.

A 40,000-acre hyperscale data center and power generation campus cleared its first regulatory hurdle in northern Utah this week.

Building energy models were calibrated against climate conditions that no longer exist. Facilities leaders need to understand what that means for efficiency projections and equipment design.

Polartec is standardizing black fleece to reduce redundant dye work. The move could help outdoor brands simplify sourcing and cut waste.

The federal BFPP defense protects brownfields buyers from CERCLA liability, but state programs differ significantly. What EHS and legal teams need to understand before acquisition.

Organizations that haven't conducted a systematic PFAS exposure assessment are making that decision by default, and the cost of finding out later is rising.

School districts are expanding solar projects beyond pilot phases. By pairing generation with efficiency upgrades, they aim to cut costs and emissions.

Crab shell waste may help control how bioplastics degrade in seawater. The approach could improve durability while supporting circular material use.

Mars signed a virtual PPA for most of the output from a planned wind farm in Lithuania that doesn't exist yet.

Sustainability-linked bonds tied to electrification milestones assume the borrower controls the timeline. Grid access constraints are proving that assumption wrong in a growing number of cases.

The GHG Protocol's Land Sector and Removals Standard takes effect January 2027. Its carbon opportunity cost methodology could significantly alter how biomass emissions are reported.

A new USGS tool shows where U.S. water supply and demand collide. It gives planners clearer data to assess risk and guide infrastructure decisions.

A major convention center doubled solar output without expanding space. Thousands of retired panels were reused, cutting waste and supporting local users.

Water risk is now immediate for U.S. businesses. Contamination, rising demand, and uneven regulation are turning supply into a daily operational challenge.

Usalco and Shannon Chemical are expanding corrosion control capabilities. The partnership combines treatment chemistry with data tools and national reach.

EU restrictions and supply chain pressure are pushing labs to replace Triton X-100, turning green chemistry into a procurement and compliance priority.

Battery risks are rising in hazardous settings as systems scale. Intrinsically safe monitoring helps reduce exposure and improve uptime.

NGO scorecards and ESG rating agency methodologies have quietly become business risk infrastructure. Most sustainability teams don't know how they're being scored.

The disclosure system was built to capture what companies believed about themselves — their goals, their trajectories, their commitments. It was not built to verify them.
