Lifeasible, a biotechnology company dedicated to agricultural and forestry innovation, has announced the update of its tissue culture service for forestry applications, designed to enhance large-scale tree propagation, support conservation programs, and promote sustainable forest management. Forests are among the planet’s most valuable ecosystems, ...
Capitalising on Airex Energy’s technology, the two companies intend to develop annual production capacity of more than 350,000 tonnes of global biochar from hitherto insufficiently or unexploited agricultural and forest biomass resources. This collaboration also aligns with the 2050 net zero target qualified as indispensable at COP 28. ...
BOSTER, acronym of Bosco (forest) and Territorio (territory) is the biggest Italian outdoor international event focused on the enhancement of forest resources and the sustainable management of the mountain territory. ...
The wood market prices guarantee an efficient allocation of forest resources: the bioenergy sector purchases what is left by other sectors, including low-value and otherwise unmarketable thinnings (whole trees). ...
Senators Mike Braun (R-IN), Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) will introduce the Growing Climate Solutions Act, which will break down barriers for farmers and foresters interested in participating in carbon markets so they can be rewarded for climate-smart practices. ...
Environmental Protection Equipment Charcoal Briquette Machine The emergence of environmental protection equipment charcoal briquette machines reduced the environmental pollution and avoided the waste of forest resources. Environmentally friendly charcoal briquette machine equipment equipped with purification equipment, which can not only remove excess dust but ...
Sophisticated analysis of large datasets – known as ‘big data’ – can enable us to meet the challenge of looking after the natural resources we depend upon for survival and economic growth, according to a new study involving the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology. The research outlines a new approach for using environmental ‘big data’ to ...
EMPSi was awarded an Environmental Analysis and Studies Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) with the US Forest Service, Region 3. The BPA contract enables EMPSi to assist the Forest Service in meeting their natural resource, forest planning, and NEPA compliance needs for all forests in their Southwest Region. ...
The US Forest Service awarded EMPSi a 5-year, $10-million Blanket Purchase Agreement for NEPA support services in Region 8, which includes 13 southeastern states from Virginia to Florida and west to Texas, as well as Puerto Rico. EMPSi will perform environmental analyses, resources studies, and Forest planning under the contract. ...
Information collected during this RFI process will be used to help determine the feasibility of using forest feedstocks as a renewable resource in Arizona.Biomass power plants use the heat produced from the combustion of biological materials to generate electricity. Biomass fuels may include forest residues, crop residues, primary and secondary ...
This information comes from the US Forest Service’s Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program, and it helps us illustrate a point that we at Enviva and others in the region’s forestry industry take pride in: the US South is a robustly forested landscape with a timber resource that’s growing far faster than its ...
The direct conversion to renewable diesel will enable resource owners such as forest industry companies to close the carbon cycle of their operations by sourcing renewable diesel for their operations from their own organic ...
“We believe that these repellants could be used in a larger context, if associated with bug lures to have a push-pull system,” said Marc Hughes, a former postdoctoral researcher in the Forest Pathology Laboratory in UF/IFAS School of Forest Resources and Conservation. ...
Focusing on 'Forests and Agriculture: Land-use Challenges and Opportunities,' the 2016 SOFO explores the challenges and opportunities presented by the complex interrelationship among forests, agriculture and sustainable development. ...
Large yield increase potential in China, Mexico, Australia The scientists have run comprehensive biophysical computer simulations, constraining these in such a way that croplands do not expand into forests and no additional water resources are needed. As it is a global study, it provides detailed vegetation dynamics and water use effects in river basins – ...
The most important threats to biodiversity in the EU are agricultural intensification, abandonment of traditional land use practices on marginal land, overexploitation of forests, fisheries and other natural resources, destruction and modification of water bodies and coastal areas and invasive alien species. 3. ...
Knowledge of forests is essential to our understanding and mitigation of climate change. ...
Rapid development is putting pressure on natural resources like air, water, forests, wildlife, fossil fuels & minerals. It is important to sustainably manage the world’s natural resources and ensure a healthy balance in the environment amid growing pressures of climate change and pollution. ...
"Here in the North we have a great forest resource that we must use". For the last five years the research environment Bio4Energy has worked to draw together scientists active in the fields developing tools and methods for making biofuels, "green" chemicals and materials based on raw materials from the forest or organic waste. ...
Unveiled today at The London Conference, is the new, jointly funded, support programme for London waste authorities, aptly named Resource London.
