Sustainability goals hamstrung by competition law, Fairtrade body argues

In creating a Business Plan for the Planet, we are committed to supporting our 1.5 million clients all over the world to make the transition toward net zero. For some, that will require a wholesale change to plan for and meet a new system of sustainable goals, and for others it may be a short, single change in the way they do business. From renewable energy to supply chains, we have the dedicated knowledge to help you meet your targets.

Since the deployment, about a month ago, of the newly developed, self-powered dismountable insulated cabins along the borders in the high-altitude region in Northwest China amid the prolonged border tensions between China and India, the living conditions and combat capability of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) border defense troops have been greatly enhanced as the region entered winter.

For the sustainable development of humanity, future efforts are necessary to develop effective technologies to reduce fossil fuels. Solar-driven hydrogen production from water splitting can be an attractive way to supply clean energy. However, the efficiency of the water splitting is limited by the reaction at the anode. Therefore Qiuhua Liang investigated some promising anode materials that may help improve the efficiency of the water splitting.  The reaction that takes place at the anode is called oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which is often regarded as the main bottleneck in water splitting because it is a so-called four-electron transfer process. The efficiency of the OER relies heavily on the anode material. Qiuhua Liang found some anode materials that may increase the efficiency of the OER.
