A breath of fresh air of scientific legitimacy is emerging in the clean tech world that can be so dominated by hype. Science based targets, verification, improved auditing methods and more grounded scrutiny generally are starting to enter into the climate related markets worldwide, driven by the EU's changing carbon market regulations. Slowly slowly we're moving towards more evidence led methods for trying to fix the planet that are less about brand building and more about substance. The latest trend on this front is a concept called Environmental Readiness Level - a comprehensive analysis of the broader environmental impacts of any new innovation including consideration of unexpected negative consequences. On World Environment Day next week June 5 I'm thrilled to be attending this event on the emerging ERL concept at Greenhouse - one of Sydney's main hubs for climate related tech development https://lnkd.in/gJJX-9bC #environmentalreadinesslevel #climatetech #climateimpact #cleantech

How green is your lab? In a recent article for LAB Worldwide, My Green Lab's Stephanie Millar, Vice President of Strategic Growth and Christina Greever-Wilson, Senior Programs Manager, discuss what makes a lab green. "A green lab would typically mean that the scientists and lab personnel are educated on sustainability initiatives that are in place, sustainability is a regular topic of discussion in lab meetings, and the lab operates with a culture of sustainability, always striving to choose the least environmentally impactful method if the science permits," they explain. The article also shares additional insight from Product Marketing Manager Andreas Otto on Agilent Technologies' adoption of green lab best practices.

Biomimicry, the circular economy, ecosystem services... these terms capture some of the innovative thinking we need to embrace when discussing the environmental challenges facing our region and our planet. Thanks to the Council of the Great Lakes Region for an interesting presentation. 👇

🌿 InnovoGreen: A Call to Safer Lab Choices🌿 🔬 Whether you’re running a small experiment or a large-scale study, always remember to think about the bigger picture. Each decision counts. As scientists, researchers, and innovators, every choice we make in the lab has a ripple effect on our planet. 🌍 The chemicals we use, the solvents we select, and the methods we choose impact more than just our experiments—they shape the future of our environment. 🧪 Green Chemistry Matters: It's more than a trend—it's a necessity. By choosing eco-friendly solvents, reducing waste, and finding safer alternatives, we are actively contributing to a more sustainable future. 🌱 Durability of our planet is in our hands. The Earth’s resources are finite, and it’s up to us to make responsible choices that preserve them for future generations. #InnovoGreen 🍀 is here to advocate for greener, safer, and more sustainable practices in research. 💡

🌆 With September approaching, our diaries are filling up with events. On August 30th, just before the end of summer, CAPTURE is organising 'Bridges for a Sustainable Society'. Are you ready to dive into the future of #sustainability? That day, CAPTURE unites the brightest minds in the circular economy, #cleantech, and sustainable innovation. This isn't just another conference - it's a meeting of visionaries shaping our 2050 reality! 🔬 CAPTURE's network unites researchers, industry leaders, and policymakers across crucial value chains: 🏭 CO2 capture and utilisation ♻ Plastic circularity 💦 Water resource recovery 💡 Just imagine turning CO2 into valuable chemicals, closing the loop on plastics, and transforming wastewater into a resource. That's the power of a collaborative approach! 🏙️ Ghent, as a European #techcapital, is the perfect backdrop for this forward-thinking event. It's where innovation meets implementation, and ideas become reality. Ready to bridge the gap between today's challenges and tomorrow's solutions? Ready to build those bridges together? (Sorry, we just couldn't resist...) 👉 Register (for free!) here: https://lnkd.in/ekKP4e4T 📍Join us at Sint-Pietersabdij, Ghent, on August 30th. 📸 Picture is from the internal CAPTURE days last year. This year, they're casting an even wider net, extending invitations to countless visionaries, so there'll be many networking opportunities. #sustainable #techforgood #circulareconomy #capturethechange
