Extreme winds from thunderstorms have downed transmission towers from Victoria to Western Australia in recent years. What’s going on?
The temptation to justify critical minerals mining at all costs is a dangerous fallacy. The social and environmental impacts of poorly mined critical minerals are dire.
Insight from one of the largest experiments ever conducted in climate change psychology sheds light on how people could make more effective decisions about their lifestyle and also wider policies.
Many incentive programs promote e-bike use, but they aren’t necessarily targeting the right people for the right reasons.
Recent research about energy industry restructuring options for a green transition indicates that innovation in renewable energy positively influences GDP.
