JBS, the world's largest meat company, faces a Dutch court petition by Greenpeace challenging whether its $6bn expansion aligns with climate and human rights duties. The case tests whether the company complies with Dutch "duty of care" laws and its own sustainability commitments.
Climate
Japan is experiencing unprecedented heat waves with temperatures exceeding 40°C, creating a new term 'kokushobi' for such extreme days. The rising temperatures are causing heatstroke deaths and reducing crop yields across the country.
Energy
Perovskite solar cells represent a next-generation alternative to silicon-based solar technology with potential for transparent solar windows. The innovation could significantly advance the solar industry's capability to harness renewable energy.
Energy
Brazil's power grid successfully managed record World Cup electricity demand swings using 86% renewable energy generation. Advanced planning and grid monitoring enabled the system to handle rapid load increases up to 12.8 GW without supply disruptions.
Wildlife
Vietnam's coffee production has driven decades of deforestation in the Central Highlands, devastating forests according to a Coffee Watch investigation. The country supplies 40% of global Robusta coffee exports while ranking as the world's second largest producer.
Climate
The Brazilian Amazon experienced its lowest acreage burned in at least four decades last year. This marks a significant reduction in deforestation-related fires in the critical rainforest region.
Ocean
Up to one billion plastic nurdles spilled into the River Tyne after two ships collided, spreading further than initially feared. The raw plastic pellets, used in manufacturing, pose significant pollution risks to the river ecosystem.
EV
Toyota is launching a next-generation Corolla EV on a new platform as the company responds to industry pressure to electrify. The world's best-selling car model is undergoing a major reinvention driven by what executives describe as a significant competitive crisis.
EV
Laos banned imports of new gas and diesel passenger cars effective June 1, requiring nearly all new vehicles to be electric. This represents the world's most aggressive EV mandate, driven by government policy rather than market demand.
Energy
ASEAN's distributed renewable energy networks show resilience during extreme climate events, with wind and solar generation variation projected to remain below 1% in 2030. The research indicates renewables are more stable than centralized fossil fuel systems during climate shocks and natural disasters.
Energy
Europe could add 25 GW of wind and solar capacity to existing hydropower sites across seven EU countries without requiring additional grid infrastructure. The Ember report highlights how leveraging current connections could accelerate clean energy deployment.
EV
China is rapidly adopting electric trucks while Western planners lag in recognizing peak diesel demand. The article discusses what global transportation planners are missing regarding China's EV truck momentum.
EV
CATL and Octopus Energy launched Swaptopus, a joint venture developing automated battery-swapping hubs for heavy trucks across Europe. The infrastructure aims to accelerate electric truck adoption by addressing charging time and range concerns.
Ocean
Australia is expanding seismic testing for oil and gas exploration, but marine scientists warn the loud underwater blasts pose serious risks to whale populations and other marine life.
Policy
Colombia's newly elected right-wing president Abelardo de la Espriella has promised to expand fossil fuel production and mining. An Indigenous leader from Putumayo shares concerns about the environmental implications of these policies.
EV
GM is scaling back EV production for Chevrolet and Cadillac, planning to reintroduce gas-powered vehicles despite both brands' strong positions in the EV market.
Policy
Australian environmental groups challenge the Albanese government's approval of Woodside's North West Shelf gas extension in federal court. The case tests how Australian environmental law addresses climate change impacts from major fossil fuel projects.
Wildlife
NSW cleared 81,293 hectares of vegetation in 2024, a 16% increase driven by non-woody vegetation clearing rising 70%. The state failed to reduce habitat destruction despite pledges to limit clearing.
EV
Sweden's EV market share reached 67.0% in Q2 2026, up from 62.5% a year prior, with the Volvo EX40 leading BEV sales. Overall auto sales volume grew 22% year-over-year to 79,891 units.
Energy
Chile is tendering 2,835 GWh of backup power supply exclusively to renewable and storage technologies, excluding coal and high-emission fuels. The technology-neutral tender allows solar, wind, hydro, and battery storage projects to compete individually or as hybrid configurations.
Energy
ACME Solar secured a 25-year PPA with India's SECI for a 300 MW wind-solar hybrid project at $0.034/kWh tariff. The ISTS-connected facility will supply renewable energy to India's power grid.
Energy
RMIT University researchers have developed an upgraded titanium dioxide catalyst that increases green hydrogen production by over 80 times compared to untreated commercial versions. The low-cost innovation could significantly advance hydrogen as a clean energy solution.
Energy
Solar curtailment is emerging as a key challenge for grid operators as renewable capacity grows. Converting wasted solar energy into dispatchable power through storage or other methods could unlock new economic value.
Energy
Chinese battery integrator HyperStrong has signed a deal with CATL for 60 GWh of sodium-ion battery cells over three years, marking the largest order for this emerging technology. The agreement signals growing commercial viability of sodium-ion batteries as an alternative energy storage solution.
