To encourage more drivers to switch to EV transportation choices, the Kenyan electric mobility startup Roam formerly known as opibus is developing mobile charging centers for electric motorcycles.In Kenya, a significant pollution issue has arisen as a result of the popularity of gas-engine motorcycles. According to Africa News, "Air pollution alone was responsible for around 5,000 premature deaths in Kenya in 2019." Roam's new electric motorbike charging facilities aim to contribute to the solution. Roam has started building hubs where owners of electric motorcycles can rent batteries, recharge their own batteries, and even obtain repair from qualified mechanics.

People that advocate for climate change, like Deborah Meaden of Dragons' Den, have been called alarmists. Meaden has openly defended himself against accusations of exaggerated climate change on websites like X (formerly known as Twitter). She is enthusiastic about the subject despite the animosity her public stance provokes. Meaden recently told the BBC that "the climate change problem is here and now" during a gathering. According to her, the concept is becoming more and more popular, and this has significant financial ramifications. She is, of course, better known as a well-known businesswoman than as a scientist or social activist. Because they provide us with the needs and luxuries of contemporary life, big enterprises are a major contributor to the environmental harm that drives climate change.Meaden claims that because of consumer pressure, they are being compelled to reevaluate their policy more frequently. In the last five or six years, consumers have begun to realize the power that lies in their pockets, according to her. "They are advising firms to alter the way they operate. They want to ensure that companies are lessening their influence on the environment. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-66293289

British broadcasting corporation had shared that some analysts think the final temperature may be the highest in tens of thousands of years, even though July is expected to be the warmest month in data going back approximately 150 years. Even with a few days left, analysts are optimistic that the month will break the 2019 record for heat.The world is about to enter a "era of global boiling," according to UN chief Antonio Guterres. Most scientists concur that using fossil fuels is the main cause of the increased heat. No one can "deny the impact of climate change anymore," according to US Vice President Joe Biden, who called it a "existential threat." https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-66322608

Slabs of chicken meat grown from cells nurtured by scientists, rather than from birds raised and slaughtered by farmers, can now be sold in the United States. The U.S. Department of Agriculture greenlit two kinds of lab-grown chicken for the first time on Wednesday. The move makes the United States the second country in the world, after Singapore, to allow cultivated meats on the market. Although the poultry (or poultry-esque) products — by Upside Foods and Good Meat — won’t be on the shelves at your local grocery store anytime soon, the approval marks a milestone for alternative proteins. https://grist.org/food/lab-grown-meat-approved-us-climate-chicken/ The innovative meat, grown from cell cultures fed amino acids, sugars, salts, and vitamins, has generated intrigue among investors, animal rights advocates, and fancy-food connoisseurs. One of cultivated meat’s key selling points, beyond mere novelty, is that it could be a salve for global warming. Growing meat in a lab doesn’t involve livestock or land for grazing and cuts out the greenhouse gas emissions associated with raising cows, chickens, and pigs for food — 11 percent to 14.5 percent of global climate pollution. By some estimates, cultivated meat could reduce those emissions by 92 percent.

Rishi Sunak has confirmed that a fossil fuel-funded think tank helped to draft his government’s laws targeting climate protests. Speaking at Policy Exchange’s summer party on Wednesday (28 June), the prime minister boasted that the think tank’s work “helped us draft” the government’s crackdown on protests, according to Politico. Open Democracy reported last year that Policy Exchange’s US wing, American Friends of Policy Exchange, which provides funds to the UK branch, received $30,000 (roughly £23,700) from oil and gas giant ExxonMobil in 2017. Two years later, Policy Exchange published a report entitled “Extremism Rebellion”, in reference to the environmental protest group, calling for the police and the government to clamp down on eco protests. An Extinction Rebellion spokesperson told DeSmog that this story “exemplifies the stranglehold that private interests have on our democracy.” Ministers have been clear that new police powers are designed to stop climate protests. The former Home Secretary Priti Patel cited tactics used by Extinction Rebellion and Insulate Britain when arguing for what became the Police, Crime, Sentencing, https://www.desmog.com/2023/06/29/rishi-sunak-boasts-that-oil-funded-think-tank-helped-us-draft-crackdown-on-climate-protests/ and Courts Act 2022. Sunak’s statement yesterday appears to confirm open Democracy's allegation that sections of the 2022 law were ‘directly inspired’ by Policy Exchange’s report.

More than 30 years ago, the tiny island nation of Vanuatu off the coast of Australia proposed a radical idea: Wealthy, high-emitting nations should compensate poorer, less energy-intensive nations suffering the disastrous consequences of climate change. For Vanuatu, those consequences continue to wreak havoc. The 320,000-person country is more vulnerable to natural disasters than any other nation, according to the United Nations, and it has been devastated by a series of cyclones in recent years. The archipelago is also prone to earthquakes, and sea level rise has pushed residents to move to higher ground. As a result, Vanuatu has been a leader in advocating for climate justice on behalf of Pacific Island nations. Vanuatu https://grist.org/international/vanuatu-ralph-regenvanu-international-court-loss-and-damage/ recently persuaded a majority of the countries in the United Nations to seek an advisory opinion on the responsibility of states to tackle climate change from the International Court of Justice, or ICJ, the world’s highest court.

We believe everyone should be able to access EVs and to have a clean energy charging infrastructure providing benefits beyond just a clean, quiet, fun ride,” said Michael Benson, vice president of Drive Electric Northeast Ohio. He’s also a co-owner of Command Consulting, a Wadsworth firm that advises on electrification, microgrids and shared services. The foundation chose the location to promote equitable growth in the Midtown and Hough neighborhoods, a historically redlined area where a majority of residents are Black and median household incomes are less than half of Ohio’s statewide median. The Route Zero Road Trip is an electric vehicle tour from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., that began last month. Drive Electric Northeast Ohio worked with the Cleveland Foundation to host the stop at the foundation’s new headquarters, which features a solar-powered carport, to draw attention to the neighborhoods and the importance of making sure that people at all income levels can take advantage of the shift toward electrification. https://energynews.us/2023/06/21/electric-vehicle-tour-highlights-need-for-equitable-charging-access-in-cleveland/

Jennifer says she realized action was needed urgently and she no longer had the passion or motivation to continue studying the effects. Her PhD on melting ice sheets and changing sea levels had taken her to Antarctica, Scandinavia, and the USA but it was while leading a workshop for primary school children in Glasgow that she began to question what she was doing. She put her career on hold in order to take more direct action but she found the scale of the challenge overwhelming. Jennifer is one of a growing number of people who have experienced "eco-anxiety" - a chronic sense of hopelessness and fear of environmental doom. It presented itself as depression and anxiety," she says. She felt completely paralyzed and often unable to get out of bed.

One of the key moments at the COP26 climate meeting in 2021 saw over 100 world leaders sign the Glasgow Declaration on forests, where they committed to working collectively to "halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030". In total, leaders from countries covering around 85% of global forests signed up. This included former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, who had relaxed the enforcement of environmental laws to allow development in the Amazon rainforest. The Glasgow pact was agreed upon after a previous agreement signed in 2014 failed to stem the relentless loss of trees. Now a new analysis carried out by Global Forest Watch shows that the new promise made in Glasgow is not being kept. Losses of tropical primary (old-growth) forests are seen as particularly critical for global warming and biodiversity. Rainforests in Brazil, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Indonesia absorb huge amounts of greenhouse gases. Clearing or burning these older forests sees that stored carbon released to https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-66013854 the atmosphere, driving up temperatures around the world. These forests are also critical for maintaining biodiversity and the livelihoods of millions of people.

Commercial shipping's greenhouse gas emissions are something the International Maritime Organization, which oversees the industry, would want to reduce by half by midcentury and possibly even further this year. As IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim has stated, "decarbonization" is a concept that the shipping industry must fully embrace. If all goes according to plan, this passageway will serve as a model for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from shipping, which account for approximately 3% of global emissions. That's a lot, and it's on the rise; it's just less than what comes via automobiles, trucks, trains, and airplanes. Major adjustments to vessels and infrastructure are needed to meet agency goals. This motivates efforts to establish "green shipping corridors" along major routes, where innovative practices and technology may be tested and implemented rapidly. https://apnews.com/article/climate-shipping-emissions-los-angeles-4d7e74f7994463aafbcd58f8c15936be

https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-65385834 The energy business decreased its emissions goal by the end of the decade, forcing this decision.BP welcomed "constructive challenge and engagement" when five shareholder pension plans raised concerns about a "failure of governance" before Thursday's annual meeting.Shareholders targeted 35–40% greenhouse gas emission reduction by 2022. BP trimmed 20-30% in February to improve oil and gas production and fossil fuel programs. BP CEO Bernard Looney said this was to address energy security concerns raised by the Ukraine invasion.Five pension funds told the BBC they voted against Helge Lund to protest the company's behavior. BP's pension funds own 1%. They administer about 30% of UK pensions, making them influential.Public pension fund Nest's senior responsible investment manager Katharina Lindmeier told the BBC, "Not only were we disappointed to see the company going back on the targets, but we were also really surprised not to have had any consultation." The five pension funds—Nest, the Universities Pension Scheme, LGPS Central, Brunel Pension Partnership, and Border to Coast—oppose the additional criteria because BP's fossil fuel projects will lose value as the world progresses toward net zero emissions.After watching BBC's Under Poisoned Skies, Nest worried about BP's gas flaring mitigation efforts.BBC News reported that BP and other global oil companies failed not monitor gas flaring emissions at Iraqi oil sites. This releases carcinogens. The documentary featured Ali Hussein Julood's Rumaila, Iraq life. He thought flares caused infantile leukemia. Recurring sickness killed him on April 22.BP "was extremely concerned by the issues raised" in the show and is acting, according to the BBC.

Transitioning to electric transportation is critical for reducing carbon emissions and combating climate change. Kenya, like many other developing countries, faces significant challenges in adopting e-mobility, including high costs, limited infrastructure, and technology barriers. By providing assistance and support, such as funding, technology transfer, and capacity building, Kenya can accelerate its transition to e-mobility. This can have multiple benefits, including reduced pollution, improved air quality, and increased energy efficiency. Furthermore, e-mobility can also create job opportunities and stimulate economic growth. Collaborative efforts to support Kenya's e-mobility aspirations can contribute to sustainable development, environmental conservation, and a cleaner future for the country.
