Air New Zealand Sets New 2030 Climate Goals After Dropping out of SBTi - ESG Today Air New Zealand published new 2030 emissions guidance, a year after removing its 2030 targets – which it had said were no longer achievable – and withdrawing from the Science Based Targets initiative....

I get it — Air New Zealand dropped out of SBTi because the world does NOT produce enough sustainable aviation fuel, and the SAF we do have is prohibitively expensive. Air New Zealand is still doing a lot and should be supported! www.esgtoday.com/air-new-zeal...

“Because it feels good when I stop”

Texas State Rep. Janie Lopez has filed HB 4049 to make it illegal to “track, calculate, measure, assess, or estimate the greenhouse gas emissions in this state.” It’ll be illegal in TX to follow CA or EU law.

I tried using AI to lazily search for a carbon emissions factor for long-haul flights. It confidently returned an answer & explanation that was three orders of magnitude off. Thankfully I’m an expert and called BS.

If it can charge an EV as quickly as filling up a fuel tank, this is not just a game changer, it is THE game changer.

"People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her knuckles, the grit of cobblestones in her hair, and just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go." #greenbiz25

My high-level take of the first day keynotes is the number of allusions to needing broad community solidarity (and collective trauma work) for the world we find ourselves in today #greenbiz25

Just arrived in Phoenix for the annual trek to @trellisgroup.bsky.social’s #GreenBiz25, where amid lush-appearing lawns and bubbling fountains in the Sonoran desert we’ll discuss *checks notes* sustainability.

If you think DIVERSITY is unfair, maybe you're the one who's being unfairly protected.

If you think INCLUSION is unfair, maybe you're just a dick.
