Volvo is putting greener materials inside its newest truck cabs. The move brings recycled plastics, fibers and certified wood into VNL and VNR models.

Chain length may shape how PFAS move through water and respond to treatment. For utilities, that means monitoring and removal strategies need sharper focus.

A peer-reviewed study in The Cryosphere is the first to directly attribute a major Antarctic glacier's retreat to human-driven warming, with effects projected to continue for centuries.

Tariff volatility, critical mineral concentration and supplier concentration have shifted the sources of procurement leverage heading into Q3 2026.

UPS is investing $48 million in temperature-controlled freight facilities while expanding AI-powered logistics to support growing pharmaceutical demand.

World Athletics' 2026 midpoint review shows what happens when sustainability stops being a pledge and becomes a contractual deliverable embedded in event hosting requirements.

Many organizations entered 2026 expecting normalization. Q2 suggests the second half will be defined by adaptation rather than recovery.

For years, organizations optimized for efficiency. In today's operating environment, excess capacity is increasingly becoming a strategic asset organizations can't quickly replicate.

Smart hydrants are giving utilities a sharper view of aging networks. McWane’s iHydrantPlus supports leak detection, pressure monitoring and faster response.

Trade tensions, AI infrastructure growth, and resource constraints are forcing executives to rethink assumptions about supply chains and competitive advantage.

Twenty-one percent of supply chain leaders still operate without real-time visibility into disruptions affecting their suppliers

Companies that map their full supply chain typically find more than they expected: hidden concentration, environmental exposure several tiers deep, and risk that travels farther than anyone modeled.
