BECCS - Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage

Richard Blume — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:41:55 -0400
What is BECCS?
BECCS stands for Bio Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage. It is an emerging technology that has the potential to go beyond traditional climate change mitigation, and instead actually achieve negative emissions, i.e. net removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
How does it work?
Negative CO2 emissions are generated by combining bio-energy production (biomass fuel-power stations, pulp mills and bio-fuel plants) with carbon capture and storage technology, allowing carbon dioxide to be captured from the atmosphere and remitted back underground.

Down to Earth – Space and Innovation for Sustainability

Richard Blume — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 08:55:20 -0500

All signs show that the sustainability challenge requires radical innovation and ‘thinking outside the box’, so what could be more appropriate than looking for lessons in space? Down to Earth - a Swedish ten-year initiative involving space agencies, companies and universities - is doing exactly that, and is now seeking interest from companies to participate in the next phase.

Everyone can be a change-maker – round-up from Ashoka Globalizer Summit

Richard Blume — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 04:15:57 -0400

Last week I had the privilege of attending Ashoka’s Social Entrepreneurship Forum in Stockholm where The Natural Step Founder was officially welcomed into Ashoka’s fellowship. The event topped off what was, by all accounts, a fantastic weekend for Ashoka’s Globalizer programme.

Selected from more than 2500 individuals in over 70 countries, Dr Karl-Henrik Robèrt is one of 16 social entrepreneurs participating in the 2011 Globalizer programme, which aims to match “ready to globalize” innovations - like the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development promoted by The Natural Step - with the resources needed to rapidly and effectively achieve global scale.

Partnership between Global Footprint Network and The Natural Step Builds on Shared Strengths

Geoff Stack — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 16:26:41 -0400

The Natural Step has recently partnered with the Global Footprint Network (GFN). The two organisations have worked informally together for years, share many common goals and agree on at least three very basic assumptions around sustainability: (1) We’re in trouble; (2) Solving our ecological crisis requires macro-level systems-thinking; and (3) We can succeed only by working together.
