Returns cost companies billions of dollars in lost sales. They also generate emissions and packaging waste. Two logistics experts offer some tips from psychology for more sustainable returns.
Internal combustion engine cars still dominate global sales – it could be to do with the emotive influence they hold over drivers.
Europe is gripped by a heatwave called Cerberus - it may be a sign of things to come.
Growing ship numbers and reductions in the industry’s total emissions add up to big emission cuts per ship – as much as 60% by 2030 and 91% by 2040. The days of fossil-fuelled ships are now numbered.
Can planting trees help us solve the climate crisis? Probably, but to what extent?
A new study estimates a reduction in emissions of only 35-45% of pre-COVID levels by 2050. Lighter vehicles and faster uptake of electric vehicles can dramatically improve progress towards net zero.
The strong trade relationship with the EU means policy changes like the border tax may have disproportionately significant effects on African economies.
Drought in Europe, dwindling Arctic sea ice, a slow start to the Indian monsoon – unusually hot ocean temperatures can disrupt climate patterns around the world, as an ocean scientist explains.
Canadian courts are increasingly holding governments accountable for violating their citizens’ human rights by not doing enough on climate change.
Marine life known as zooplankton might be the biggest problem with getting carbon cycling right in climate models. The potential variations in carbon uptake are greater than global transport emissions.
When Peter Singer first published Animal Liberation in 1975, he wasn’t aware of climate change. But the new book, Animal Liberation Now, argues eating plants will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Returns are becoming a costly sustainability problem for retailers and the planet. A supply chain expert explains.
When food scraps and garden clippings are sent to landfill, it’s not just a waste of nutrients and water. The rotting organic matter trapped in landfill produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas.
Everyone loves a barbecue – here’s how to enjoy it while being mindful of our planet.
Our annual reports will update the world on the climate’s vital signs.
An expert in atmospheric science sheds light on Earth’s energy imbalance and its consequences for humankind.
If greenhouse gas emissions continue at a high rate, breadbaskets of Europe and North America will see a 50% chance of a flash drought each year by the end of this century.
Domestic use of natural gas is a minimal contributor to overall greenhouse emissions. There should be no rush to ban it before better, cheaper options are in place.
Mangroves and salt marshes pump out methane – but soak up carbon dioxide. Overall, the world’s coasts are a net greenhouse sink – and we must preserve them
