article Study Finds Bottom Trawling Could Cost Europe up to €16bn a Year
May 7th, 2026 • A new study has estimated that bottom trawling in European waters imposes social costs of up to €16bn annually, largely through carbon emissions from disturbed seabed sediments. The findings add pressure on governments to reassess fisheries subsidies, marine protected area rules, and the role of destructive fishing practices in net-zero strategies.
article Study Finds Renewables Offer Greater Climate Value Than Direct Air Capture in Most U.S. Regions
May 7th, 2026 • A new peer-reviewed study finds that investment in utility-scale solar and onshore wind delivers greater climate and public health benefits per dollar than direct air capture across most U.S. grid regions. The findings do not dismiss direct air capture, but suggest policymakers and investors should weigh its opportunity costs against faster, cheaper emissions cuts from renewable power.
