- News 28 October 2025 Technological innovation accelerates biobased technology deployment Biobased technologies such as the conversion of food waste into fuel, could reduce the world’s reliance on fossil fuels, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and helping countries combat climate change, according a new report from the United Nations. According to the Climate Technology Progress Report 2025: Advancing Biobased Technologies in the Bioeconomy (CTPR 2025), technological innovation is making a suite of biobased technologies more practical to deploy. Biobased technologies refer to…
- Webinar & E-Learning 14 October 2025 From Hard to Abate to Hard to Ignore: Shipping’s Historic Climate Regulation and the Impact on Developing States (Webinar) - 24.09.2025 This webinar, co-hosted by the UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre and the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping, explored the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Net Zero Framework—described as the first global, legally binding climate regulation for an industry sector. Gabriela Prata Dias opened the session by emphasising the urgency of climate action, noting that “emissions need to be declining before 2030 to keep the 1.5 degree within reach.” She highlighted the shipping…
