Supported by a nearly $1.6 million grant from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Dr. Ramesh Goel‘s groundbreaking research will be fighting "forever chemicals," or PFAS. This project — one of ten grants awarded nationwide to address the PFAS crisis in agricultural, rural, and tribal communities — underscores the University of Utah's dedication to tackling critical challenges that affect the region. https://lnkd.in/gP2WDG7t

🇪🇺 The Council and European Parliament have reached a provisional political agreement to establish the first EU-level certification framework for permanent #carbonremovals, #carbonfarming, and #carbonstorage. 🛣 This agreement marks a significant step towards introducing a comprehensive carbon removal and #soilemissionreduction framework in EU legislation, aligning with the ambitious goal of achieving #climateneutrality by 2050 as outlined in the European climate law. Key elements: 🌱 The regulation will cover various #carbonremoval and #emissionreduction activities, including permanent carbon removal, temporary carbon storage in long-lasting products, temporary carbon storage from carbon farming, and soil emission reduction. 🌍 Carbon removal activities will need to meet criteria such as quantification, additionality, long-term storage, and sustainability. Tailored certification methodologies will be developed for different types of carbon removal activities to ensure harmonised implementation. 📊 Certified carbon removal and #soilemission reduction activities will generate corresponding units, contributing to the EU's #climateobjectives and nationally determined contributions. 🔍 Clear monitoring obligations and liability rules will be established for operators to address any cases of reversal during the monitoring period. 🖥️ The Commission will establish a common and transparent electronic EU-wide registry to make information on certification and units publicly available. 🌳 At ReForest, we are committed to advancing sustainable agricultural practices and carbon sequestration efforts. ☘ This agreement paves the way for increased adoption of #agroforestry and other #carbonfarming techniques, offering new opportunities for land managers and farmers to contribute to #climateaction. 👉 More information: https://lnkd.in/eSPUjznR 🌿 #ClimateAction #CarbonFarming #EURegulation #Sustainability

🚰 University of California, Riverside researchers have discovered bacteria from the Acetobacterium genus capable of breaking down #PFAS, or "forever chemicals," in #water. Using these bacteria to treat groundwater is cost-effective and could help meet US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards limiting PFAS levels in drinking water. The study, published in Science Advances, marks a significant step toward developing low-cost methods for cleaning contaminated water sources. https://lnkd.in/dP4fj7Z7 #water #watertreatment #drinkingwater #foreverchemicals #emergingcontaminants

Experts at University of California, Riverside have discovered a species of microbes that can effectively combat harmful forever chemicals. The environmental engineering team has identified microorganisms that belong to the genus Acetobacterium that may provide an effective weapon against forever chemicals. These microorganisms are commonly found in wastewater environments worldwide and may help develop low-cost treatment for contaminated drinking water sources. https://lnkd.in/e5dCRZUU #foreverchemicals #water #watercontamination #pfas

Wastewater treatment is the process through which the sewage water is freed from various impurities allowing it's safe disposal or reuse. This lecture gives in depth detail about the process of Secondary treatment in wastewater or sewage treatment system. Secondary treatment or the biological treatment process utilizes the ability of the microorganisms to oxidize organic pollutants present in the waste water. This is the part-2 of the Secondary treatment process which discusses the Attached growth treatment process. For more in-depth details please watch the lecture 🙏 #ugcnet #ugcnet2023 #upsc #pcs #environment #environmental #environmentalscience View all other completed playlist on the YouTube channel. telegram channel link- https://lnkd.in/dh7JNr8Y @itsenvironmentalbyaditi Please do subscribe and share 🙏🙂 ॐ हन हनुमते नमः | https://lnkd.in/gmTbsUwM

✒ Soil Monitoring Law: EU Council reached the general approach. ⏭ Next step: trilogue negotiations 🌱 #Soilhealth is critical to achieving global SDGs and is defined as the continued capacity of soils to support #ecosystemservices. 🏛 As the law just passed the Council, implementation will still take time and will be carried out by member states, meaning it will vary across the EU. The Council's general approach will enable negotiations with the European Parliament on the final text. The lack of dedicated EU #soil #legislation was identified as a major issue in the #EUsoil strategy. 🔬 The law aims to make soil health monitoring obligatory, provide guiding principles for sustainable soil management, and address soil contamination risks. The law also tackles soil sealing and destruction, with mitigation principles for land use planning. Contaminated sites will be identified, mapped, and prioritised for clean-up based on risks.
