article Floating Wetlands Cut Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Wastewater Lagoons
September 11th, 2026 • A two-year Australian trial found that floating wetlands planted with native reeds and sedges reduced greenhouse gas emissions from a wastewater lagoon by 22% to 31% on a CO₂-equivalent basis. The findings suggest that nature-based systems could help water utilities cut methane and nitrous oxide emissions while improving wastewater quality without major infrastructure changes.
article Fashion Industry Emissions Rise Nearly 14% in Two Years as Polyester Use Expands
September 10th, 2026 • Greenhouse gas emissions from the global fashion industry increased by nearly 14% across 2023 and 2024, according to new research from the Apparel Impact Institute. Rising fiber production, particularly fossil fuel-based polyester, is offsetting progress in renewable energy, efficiency, and supplier decarbonization.
article PureCycle and Motherson Develop Bumper With 30% Recycled Polypropylene
September 9th, 2026 • PureCycle Technologies and automotive supplier Motherson have produced a Class-A bumper prototype containing 30% post-consumer recycled polypropylene. The project demonstrates how recycled plastics could move into more demanding automotive applications as European manufacturers prepare for new mandatory recycled-content requirements.
article Uber and Wayve Launch Electric Autonomous Ride-Hailing Service in London
September 8th, 2026 • Uber and UK autonomous driving company Wayve have launched supervised self-driving rides in London using all-electric Ford Mustang Mach-E vehicles. The service marks the first public autonomous ride-hailing deployment in the UK, although licensed safety drivers will initially remain on board while the country develops its regulatory framework for fully driverless services.
article Microsoft and NORDEN Complete First RSB-Verified Maritime Book and Claim Transaction
September 7th, 2026 • Microsoft and Danish shipping company NORDEN have completed the first delivery of verified maritime emissions reductions through the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials Book & Claim Registry. The pilot expands a mechanism already used in aviation to shipping, offering companies another way to address Scope 3 transport emissions when sustainable marine fuels are not available on their individual shipping routes.
article UTS and Howden Develop Catalytic Technology to Cut Mine Methane Emissions
September 4th, 2026 • The University of Technology Sydney and Howden are building a pilot plant to test catalytic technology designed to reduce low-concentration methane emissions from mining by more than 90%. The system operates at lower temperatures than conventional thermal oxidation technologies and could eventually be applied to mines, landfills, waste facilities and other methane-emitting industries.
article Chapultepec Launches Circular Waste Management Model in Mexico City
September 4th, 2026 • Mexico City has introduced a new waste management model at Chapultepec Forest that separates organic, recyclable and non-recyclable materials at source. The initiative aims to increase material recovery, reduce final disposal and demonstrate how circular economy principles can be applied across large urban public spaces.
article Advanced TRISO Fuel Could Support Expansion of Next-Generation Nuclear Power
September 3rd, 2026 • Standard Nuclear is scaling production of TRISO fuel, a ceramic-coated nuclear fuel designed to withstand temperatures beyond those tolerated by conventional reactor fuel. New supply agreements with microreactor developers highlight growing demand, although fuel availability, licensing and reactor deployment remain important constraints on the sector’s expansion.
article VELUX and WWF Complete 450,000-Hectare Forest Conservation Portfolio
September 3rd, 2026 • VELUX and WWF have established the fourth and final project in a 20-year forest conservation partnership covering more than 450,000 hectares across Madagascar, Vietnam and Uganda. The portfolio is expected to reduce and remove 4.5 million tonnes of CO₂ while supporting biodiversity, forest restoration and local communities.
article Supply Chain Cyber Risks Grow as Digital Blind Spots Expose Critical Operations
September 2nd, 2026 • Cyberattacks affecting airports, manufacturers and third-party technology providers are highlighting how digital dependencies can create vulnerabilities across entire supply chains. As companies increase their use of AI, connected systems, and shared platforms, cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly important part of operational resilience and sustainable supply chain management.
article Australia Sets Renewable Power Requirement for New Data Centres With Limited Fossil Fuel Exemptions
September 2nd, 2026 • Australia is moving toward nationally consistent energy standards requiring large new data centres to support their electricity consumption with additional renewable generation and firming capacity. States seeking to use existing coal or gas supplies would have to demonstrate to the federal regulator that the alternative is cheaper, as rapidly rising AI-related electricity demand puts new pressure on the power system.
article OPITO Launches Decarbonization Qualification for Energy Industry Workforce
September 1st, 2026 • Global energy skills body OPITO has launched a new Decarbonisation Training Certificate developed from a program originally created by PETRONAS and its technical training institute INSTEP. The qualification aims to give energy professionals practical skills in greenhouse gas accounting, carbon pricing, emissions reduction strategies and the economics of decarbonisation projects.
