Achieving net-zero carbon emissions in the U.S. by 2050 is feasible and would not only help address climate change but also build a more competitive economy, increase high-quality jobs, and help address social injustice in the energy system, says a new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.

In an interview, NAE President John Anderson discusses the national and global transition to net-zero carbon emissions and how engineers — and NAE in particular — can support that shift. Energy Transitions is the theme of NAE’s annual meeting this year, taking place Oct. 2-3.

Bulgarian President Rumen Radev spoke about the threat of climate change at the COP29 climate summit in Baku on Tuesday, where he backed a net zero target, admitting that just 10 years ago, he would have thought the goal was incompatible with competitiveness. The UN summit in Baku runs from 11 to…

It sits on a flat stretch of green, surrounded by the rolling hills and pretty palm trees of Southern California. It's an amazing little oasis, a quiet getaway. And it's the first building in California to receive Zero Carbon Certification from the International Living Future Institute. It's only the fourth building in the entire world to reach this status. This home is called Zero One by MariSol Malibu and it's the first of its kind.[...]

We're not winning the fight against climate change, as the 2018 IPCC report makes incontrovertible. What does energy in a zero carbon world look like? Well, we have a lot of challenges ahead of us: companies can't tackle this work on their own, which means embracing collaboration, and changing the energy model. Stephen Fitzpatrick is the CEO and founder of OVO Energy, a UK energy provider which has launched the world’s first commercially available electric-vehicle-to-grid charger in partnership with Nissan.
