Urban mobility encompasses various modes. Walking, bicycling, public transit, automobile travel and even telecommuting all contribute to urban movement in different ways. Urbanization As cities continue to urbanize, cities must adopt…

Energy storage allows renewable energy to be saved for later consumption, mitigating peak electricity demands and price spikes and creating greater efficiencies within the electric grid while decreasing fossil fuel use. Energy storage technologies range in size and duration from capacitors capable of holding 1 Wh for only seconds all the way up to grid-scale…

Zoning regulations provide the framework to reflect the goals and protect property values in any community, encouraging orderly development while safeguarding property values and assuring residents’ safety while safeguarding natural resources. Zoning regulations typically cover three main categories of land use – residential, commercial and industrial. Each zone typically specifies density requirements, building height restrictions…

Land use planning refers to the practice of determining how a specific piece of land should be utilized, taking into account factors like zoning regulations, environmental impact assessments and community input. Equal development means addressing imbalances in accessing resources and burdens that burden low-income communities of color. Furthermore, design guidelines promote quality development and placemaking.…

Community engagement involves collaboration among people and organizations to establish trust, foster long-term relationships and enhance outcomes. Its core values include inclusivity, openness, and learning. Promoting communication methods that suit different stakeholders’ needs.

Data breaches have become an increasing risk, often having significant legal, financial and reputational repercussions. Establishing clear governance structures to mitigate such risks can help limit their impact. Defining…

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology enables fossil fuel power plants and industrial processes like cement production to reduce emissions, providing one of the essential tools necessary for combating climate change. CO2 collected for storage purposes is transported and injected into geologic formations suitable for this task, including deep saline aquifers or depleted oil and…

With the launch of several long-range electric vehicles on the market, now is an opportune moment to consider an EV. CNET editors have dedicated many hours to researching and reviewing these new cars to help you choose one best suited to your needs. Evs with official range ratings of 400 miles or greater offer no…

Climate change mitigation requires decreasing greenhouse gas emissions into our atmosphere while simultaneously strengthening carbon sinks to help remove them. IUCN works towards finding practical nature-based solutions in this regard. Reduced emissions mean less future warming and fewer negative consequences from climate change, making us feel warmer with each passing year. Emissions can be reduced…

Energy policies are driven by national interests in areas like decarbonization, system reliability, resource diversification, technology export potential and electricity access. International agreements that align nations on goals – like Paris Agreement on climate change – may also have an influence. Countries usually provide various incentives for renewables on local, state/provincial, national and global levels.…
