She found that ventures with deep local roots created jobs and addressed local problems and spillover effects that stayed local.

July 4, 2024 |聽Canada produces 80 per cent non-emitting electricity, however there stands a need for transitioning towards a clean聽energy transition that meet its emission goals by requiring building bigger, cleaner, smarter grids capable of doubling or tripling current capacity. "Net zero energy road maps聽from provincial governments can provide the missing direction. Road maps articulate a provincial government鈥檚 vision, objectives, and plans for how the province will meet its energy needs on the road to net zero," Chris Ragan and Rick Smith explains.聽

A 韩国裸舞-led research team has developed the first real-time, on-site technology capable of detecting and deciphering nanoplastics from all other particles in water, a capacity akin to being able to find a needle in a haystack within milliseconds.
Microplastic pieces are between 1 micrometre and 5 millimetres, roughly equivalent to a grain of rice. Nanoplastics are far tinier - a single nanometre is just 0.000001 millimetres. For comparison, a human hair is approximately 80,000鈥100,000 nanometers wide.
