"In 2027, the EU will introduce a new emissions trading system, the so-called ETS2, that will levy a carbon price on diesel, petrol and heating fuelsP"T&E recommends that governments redistribute half of the nearly €300bn revenues collected from the ETS2 between 2026 to 2032 directly to the lowest earners within countries, with the remaining half to be invested in green infrastructure.

"The Swedish-made vessel traveled from Sotogrande, Spain, to Ceuta, North Africa - a 24-nautical mile trip - in just over one hour, matching the speed of conventional fast ferries."The crossing was made with the Candela C-8 Polestar edition which carries the same 67 kWh battery pack as the Polestar SUV...During the voyage, the Candela C-8 used just 40 kWh of energy -- about $10 worth. By comparison, the similarly sized gasoline-powered photo boat burned over 10 gallons of fuel, costing around $100."

SAF faces the same fraud risks as olive oil and honey, where dilution is common. With SAF costing 2-4× Jet‑A, the incentive to cheat is huge. SAFlock™ creates a tamper‑proof chain of custody to ensure true CI grades and prevent dilution or double‑counting. NetJets, operating 845 jets, bought 19.4M gallons in 2024 - about 6-7% of global SAF use - showing the scale and need for secure verification.

The global electric marine revolution is dominated by the rise of the hydrofoil, with companies like Candela, Navier, and NetBoats leading the charge. However, a parallel technological movement is brewing in Monaco. Driven by Prince Albert II, Team Monaco is utilizing tunnel-hull aerodynamics to reduce hydrodynamic drag and trap a cushion of air under the vessel. Technical expert Stephane Collard notes the team aims to smash the under-72V World Speed Record by exceeding 91 km/h.

AI's explosive growth is driving a hidden water‑extraction crisis. Traditional evaporative cooling turns municipal drinking water into atmospheric vapor that drifts away on the jet stream. Closed‑loop systems save water but spike electricity demand. Radiative sky cooling offers a physics‑based escape hatch, beaming heat into deep space without consuming water or grid power.

The potential collapse of Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier is not a sudden disaster but a slow-moving economic and geopolitical transformation. Rising seas could gradually undermine trillions of dollars in coastal assets, increase insurance and infrastructure costs, drive migration and investment inland, and force governments to rethink national security and economic development. The greatest impacts may occur long before cities are physically flooded.

Elektron Motors' 2,413-hp Quasar hyper-EV debuts at London Concours 2026 with fighter-plane power, race-car hardware, and a simulated 8-speed soundtrack. But beyond the carbon fibre, active pushrod suspension, and four electric motors, key questions remain: battery size, range, and how long those Spitfire-level electrons last. A tongue-in-cheek look at what you actually do with 2,413 electric horses.
