Description:
Forestry in Tasmania is responsible for more carbon pollution than any other sector. Retaining Tasmania's old forests, and most especially the wet forests and rainforests, is essential in our fight to prevent a runaway climate catastrophe. These forests store huge amounts of carbon - above ground as wood and leaves etc, and equally below ground in roots and organic mycorrhizal fungi. When such forests are logged and burnt mycorrhizal fungal networks are destroyed, roots rot and the below-ground

Warren Mabee provides an overview of the situation in Canada, and the ways Canadian governments are slowly moving to a low carbon economy. He explores controversial policies, like carbon taxes, and more impactful alternatives. These include the use of bio-based buildi")

_biotank.webp "Our team looked to improve standard water heaters. Water heaters are in almost every household, and expend a lot of energy. We saw that there was a lot of energy being wasted, which has a lot of negative consequences on the environment. Energy used to heat water is from fossil fuels, which both depletes resources and leads to carbon emissions. Furthermore, the combustion process involved in heating the water emits carbon gases as well, further destroying the ozone layer and trapping heat in the")

While the use of these fossil fuels will likely decline, it will not disappear, and consumers are increasingly demanding cleaner molecules. Hydrogen, carbon capture and storage, bio-based processes and sustainable aviation fuel all have a role to play, particularly when it comes to decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries.")

_cities-lead-on-climate-change.webp "SUMMARY: Half the world and 80% of Americans live in cities and urban areas use 70% of global energy. Cities are also on the frontlines when it comes to responding to climate impacts, such as rising sea levels and extreme weather related to changing global temperatures. In the run-up to and during the Paris Agreement talks in December 2015, cities played a significant role demanding action on climate change and continue to lead on strategies to reduce carbon pollution. With the current federal i")
_what-is-biofuel-biomass-science-explainer-video.webp "What is biomass or Biofuel? Biofuels are fuels that are created from organic material (biomass) either directly or indirectly. Organic materials can include those that come from plants or even animal waste. Biofuels are what provide us with bioenergy, which takes care of around 10 percent of the world's energy needs and they can be in the form of either a liquid, solid, or a gas. Due to the updates in current technology, biofuels can be extracted from a variety of materials; waste, wood or crops")
_aviation-fuels-from-natural-oils.webp "While electric cars may represent the future of personal transportation, and there is a lot of talk about electrifying freight trucks, there is one segment of the transportation market that will always need an energy-dense liquid fuel—aviation. So, finding a substitute for petroleum derived jet fuel is critical to the future sustainability of the aviation sector. Aviation fuels are hydrocarbons consisting of relatively long chains of carbon and hydrogen. The closest equivalent to these molecul")
