Putting the #circulareconomy, the #doughnuteconomy and the #degrowth economy in the same box is like saying owning a Tesla, riding public transport and living car-free are the same answer to the climate crisis.

🧴 Kunststoffe im Kreislauf führen ♻️
Wie sehen aktuelle Forschungsansätze zur Kreislaufführung von Kunststoffen aus? Und welche Rolle spielt das chemische Recycling dabei? Diese beiden Fragen beantworten Prof. Dr.-Ing. Manfred Renner (l.) und Prof. Dr.-Ing. Matthias Franke am 29. Januar in Düsseldorf – und zwar im Rahmen der Konferenz »Future of Chemical Recycling«.
#CircularEconomy #ChemischesRecycling #Nachhaltigkeit #Forschung
Am 10. Dezember endet die Female Maker Challenge mit einem offenen Showcase in Hamburg.
Neun Makerinnen präsentieren ihre zirkulären Produktideen – ab 15:00 Uhr im Pop-up-Markt, ab 16:00 Uhr mit kurzen Pitches zur Frage: Wie gestaltet eine diverse Community eine wirklich zirkuläre Zukunft? 🔄
Wir freuen uns über Austausch, Fragen und Support für die Finalistinnen.

Global Warming Current Events 2023: A Comprehensive Review
radical environmentalism meaningGlobal Warming, Also Known As Climate Change, Continue to Be One of the Most Pressing Issues of Our Time. The Effects of Rising Temperatures, Melting Ice Caps, and Extreme Weather Events are Becoming Amazingly Evident. As We Enter The Year 2023, it is essential to Stay Reported About the Latest Global Warming Current Events. In This article, We Will Explore the Most Significant Happenings in The Field of Climate Change and Their Potential Implications for Our Planet.
The Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) Findings
The Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change (IPCC) Recently Relay ITS Latest Report on The State of Global Warming. The Report, Based on The Collective Research of Thousands of Scientists, Paints A Stark Picture of The Current Sition. It Highlights The Urgent Need for Immediate Action to Mitigate The Effects of Climate Change.
According to the IPCC Report, Global Temperatures Have Risen by 1.1 Degrees Celsius Since Pre-Industrial Times. IT Also Projects An Increase of 1.5 Degrees Celsius by 2040 if not meaning action is Taken. You are findings emphasize the importance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to renewable energy sources.
The Impact of Extreme Weather Events
One of the Most Stiking Concequences of Global Warming is the increased in Extreme Weather Events. In 2023, We have witnessed to series of devastating Events That Serve As Reminders of the Urgence of Addressing Climate Change.
for Example, This Year, Several Regions Experienced Historically Intense Heatwaves, With Record-Breaking Temperatures. Heatwaves Not only owns Direct Threat to Human Health But also Put Significant Pressure On Energy Systems and Exacerbate Drought Conditions.
in addition to Heatwaves, 2023 have increased in the Frequency and Intensity of Hurricanes and Typhoons. These Storms Result In WidesPread Destruction, Displacement of Communities, and Loss of Life.
progress in renewable energy
While The Challenges posed by Global Warming Are Enormous, There is Hope in the Progress Being Made in Renewable Energy. In 2023, significant developements have observed in the transition to Cleaner and More Sustainable Sources of Power.
MANY COUNTRIES HAVE INCREASEDS THES INVESTMENTS IN SOLAR AND WIND Energy, AIMING TO REDUCE THES RELIANCE ON FOSSIL FUELS. Technological Advancements, Coupled With Favorable Government Polities, have contributed to the Rapid Growth of Renewable Energy.
Furthermore, There have been notable in the Electrification of Transportation. Electric vehicles have a reffordable and accessible, leading to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector.
The Role of International Agreements
Collaboration Between Nations is Essential in Addressing the Global Challenge of Climate Change. In Recent Years, We have witnessemed significant International Agreements and Commitments aimed at Reducting Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Slowing Down Global Warming.
in 2023, The United Nations Climate Change Conference (Cop29) Took Place, Bringing Together Leaders from Around the World to Discuss Climate Action. The Conference results in renewed commitments to reduce emissions and increase Funding for Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Efforts.
this Year Also Marked the Implementation of the Paris Agreement’s Updated Targets. Countries are now required to enhance their climate action plans to align with the Goal of Limiting Global Warming To Well Below 2 Degrees Celsius ABOVE PRE-INDUSTRIAL LEVELS.
Conclusion
The Year 2023 Has Been A Crucial Year for Global Warming Current Events. Scientific Reports and Findings from the IPCC Highlight the Need for URgent Action to Combat Climate Change. Extreme Weather Events continues to impact community across the globe, emphasizing the importance of addressing the causes of Global Warming.
However, There Is Also Hope in the progress Being Made in Renewable Energy Technologies and the Increase Commitment from Nations to Tackle Climate Change. By focusing on rear Greenhouse gas emissions, transitioning to Cleaner Energy Sources, and Fostering International Cooperation, We have the power to mitigate The Effects of Global Warming And Build A More Substable Future For Generations to Come.

Another tale from the great AI bubble
It reminds me of the apocryphal tale of two families on a desert island, eking out a livelihood taking in one another washing.

https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1944/16/17/5882 Recovery of Pure Lead-Tin Alloy from Recycling Spent Lead-Acid Batteries. This paper aims to present an innovative method for the fire refining of lead, which enables the retention of tin contained in lead from recycled lead-acid batteries. The proposed method uses aluminium scrap to remove impurities from the lead, virtually leaving all of the tin in it. #recycling #batteries #science #sustainability #battery #lead #recyclingLead #CircularEconomy
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11837-024-06892-w Refining of Secondary Pb with Retention of Sn Using Al and Ca Additions. Lead grid from spent lead-acid batteries contains significant amounts of tin and antimony. This paper presents an innovative method of pyro-refining lead using metallic aluminum and calcium to purify the lead from contaminants while retaining a higher amount of tin than in the traditional process. #recycling #batteries #science #sustainability #battery #lead #recyclingLead #CircularEconomy
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11661-025-07813-5 Analysis of the Lead Refining Method Using Aluminum. The purpose of this study was to investigate the processes occurring during the refining of lead with aluminum, by analyzing and studying ternary Pb-(M)-Al systems, where M is one of the following metals: Sb, As, Se, Cu or Ni, which are the main contaminants of secondary lead from recycling waste lead-acid batteries. #recycling #batteries #science #sustainability #battery #lead #recyclingLead #CircularEconomy

The Influence of Lead Refining Method on the Dross Content in the Metal. Impurities in lead alloys affect the production yield and grid quality of lead-acid batteries. In addition to contamination limits, battery manufacturers often specify the maximum level of dross that can be produced when melting a given alloy. #recycling #batteries #science #sustainability #battery #lead #CircularEconomy
My new print titled "Protease secreting Nannochloropsis limnetica can valorise invasive plants through circular water-use and accumulate neutral lipids" can be accessed at: https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.11.29.691304.
We demonstrate that microalgae can help circularise water-use in the LPC production process. This helps reduce fresh water consumption without affecting the yield or quality of LPC.

Brilliant innovation from Germany! 🇩🇪✨
Vending machines across the country now dispense shampoo, conditioner, and soap directly into reusable bottles. Instead of buying new plastic containers, you simply refill what you already.
This is exactly the kind of practical solution we need to reduce plastic waste at the source. Cutting waste while maintaining convenience - that's smart sustainability! ♻️

What if Everything is Free? Exploring The #LibraryOfThings Concept
"Research has shown that people are increasingly open to collaborative consumption, with studies indicating a rising willingness to share goods instead of purchasing them outright."
by Jed Brown, Feb 19, 2025
"In today’s consumer-driven society, the idea of ownership is so deeply ingrained that imagining a world where everything is free can seem radical — if not downright impossible.
Yet, emerging initiatives like the Library of Things invite us to reconsider our relationship with material goods. Rather than accumulating items, communities are experimenting with a model where objects are shared rather than owned."
