The deal will be Aramco's first international investment in LNG.

Copenhagen, Denmark - Danish shipping giant Maersk on Thursday launched the world's first container ship running on bio-methanol, a key step in its effort to lower its huge carbon footprint. Maersk, which sold its oil division to TotalEnergies in 2017, has set out a target to become carbon neutral by 2040....

Paris, France - A world facing catastrophic climate change is perilously off course in meeting goals for slashing carbon pollution and boosting finance for the developing world, according to the UN's first official progress report out Friday. The 2015 Paris treaty has successfully driven climate action, but "much more is needed...

According to an ADNOC statement, the project will be able to capture up to 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 a year, tripling ADNOC's carbon capture capacity. No cost or timeline was announced for the venture, which will be built and operated by ADNOC subsidiary ADNOC Gas.

Abu Dhabi, UAE - Oman and Etihad Rail Company (OERC) signed a deal with Jindal Shadeed Iron & Steel (Jindal) to establish a sustainable end-to-end transport logistics solution between Jindal’s steel complex at Sohar Port and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), via the UAE-Oman Rail Network. The deal is a...

Washington, United States - They are ubiquitous in the United States, controversial in Europe and coveted in South Asia. As heatwaves intensify across the world, air conditioning has taken center stage. For better or for worse, these power-hungry appliances are among the most common adaptations to a warming world. They have...

PARIS, FRANCE - European airlines have been hit by a consumer complaint filed with the EU's executive arm accusing the 17 companies of greenwashing, the practice of making misleading climate-related claims. The European Consumer Organization, or BEUC, said Thursday the claims made by the airlines breach EU rules on unfair commercial...

Following more than 15 years of discussions, UN member states finally agreed on the text for the treaty in March after a flurry of final, marathon talks. The text, since frozen, has been pored over by the UN's lawyers and translators to make sure it matches in the body's six...

Iraq looks to have renewable energies cover a third of its electricity needs by 2030 and has signed several contracts for solar plants. Its huge oil reserves are enough to produce crude at current rates for another century, but as the world works to wean itself off hydrocarbons, the country...

Scientists from University of California Los Angeles are working on a project aimed at using the oceans as a big sponge for carbon dioxide.

Diplomats from nearly 200 nations and top climate scientists begin a week-long huddle in Switzerland Monday to distill nearly a decade of published science into a 20-odd-page warning about the existential danger of global warming, and what to do about it. Since its creation in 1988, the IPCC - an...

"The impacts of the energy crisis didn't result in the major increase in global emissions that was initially feared –- and this is thanks to the outstanding growth of renewables, EVs, heat pumps and energy-efficient technologies," IEA executive director Fatih Birol said.

ADNOC, FNRC, Masdar and 44.01 to pilot a technology in Fujairah.

The study said impelling fossil fuel firms to use technologies to suck carbon from the air and bury it back in the ground would be a cost-effective decarbonization strategy.

The facility will be capable of processing 100,000 tons of cargo annually.

Etihad Cargo currently operates 11 flights per week to John F. Kennedy International Airport, which will increase to 14 weekly flights.

The TESTIAC project was implemented to increase the electricity generation capacity of gas turbines during high ambient temperatures in summer by using chilled water to cool the inlet air to gas turbines.

RWE is one of Germany's main energy providers, with production historically linked to coal, which placed it among the country's largest CO2 polluters. The group has accelerated its diversification into renewables in recent years.

The global registry, Containing more than 50,000 fields across 89 countries, it found that some countries on their own held reserves containing enough carbon to blow through the entire world's carbon budget.

As the planet struggles to meet its climate targets, some climate experts see the technique, called carbon capture and storage, as a means to reduce emissions from fossil-fuel-based industries.

A long-delayed UN conference on how to restore the faltering health of global oceans kicks off in Lisbon Monday, with thousands of policymakers, experts, and advocates on the case.

CO2 pollution this year will be just shy of the record set in 2019, according to the Global Carbon Project consortium.

The world's seas have absorbed around a third of all carbon pollution produced since the Industrial Revolution
