Cardboard and earth combine to create low-carbon alternative to concrete
Engineers in Australia have developed a new building material with about one quarter of concrete's carbon footprint, while reducing waste going to landfill. The research is published in the journal Structures.

Sydney’s First Upcycled Skyscraper Named Finalist for 2025 Earthshot Prize | Happy Eco News
Sydney’s Quay Quarter Tower, the world’s first upcycled skyscraper, has been named a finalist for the 2025 Earthshot Prize. The retrofit retained 65% of its structure, avoided 12,000 tonnes of embodied carbon, and doubled usable space. The project proves that reusing old towers can replace demolition as a sustainable, profitable alternative.

Habe eine Einführung bei den Bücherhallen gemacht und kann mir nun einen Platz buchen in deren MakerSpace. Das ist schon ziemlich cool als städtisches Angebot tbh. Drucken kann man auf einem Bambu Lab X1-Carbon oder alternativ auf einem Open Source Hyper Cuboid. Filamente sind umsonst.
Es gibt außerdem einen Plotter.

Analyzing the Performance of a 2.72kWp Rooftop Grid tied Photovoltaic System in Tarlac City, Philippines
Residential and industrial areas are using rooftop grid-tied Photovoltaic (PV) systems, which are becoming increasingly popular. This is because solar energy reduces electrical consumption and provides free energy, while also lowering carbon emissions to create a more sustainable environment. This paper aims to analyze the 2.72kW p rooftop grid-tied PV system performance between 2020 and 2023 in Tarlac City, Philippines. The PV generated yearly is measured by Array Yield (YA), Reference Yield (…

What fuel will ships burn as they move toward net zero?
This is Part 3 of a short series on efforts to decarbonize the global shipping industry. Part 1 addressed international policy and politics, Part 2 efficiency measures. This part looks at alternative fuels. In mid-October, more than 100 nations will gather at a London meeting to decide whether to enshrine a set of carbon reduction […]
