(Nanowerk News) Due to the recent improvements in the efficiency with which solar cells made from organic (carbon-based) semiconductors can convert sunlight into electricity, improving the long-term stability of these photovoltaic devices is becoming an increasingly important topic. Real-world applications of the technology demand that the efficiency of the photovoltaic device be maintained for many years.

Despite the sharp growth over the last decade, companies are realising that it is difficult to translate wind power into profits. Some of the world's biggest wind energy companies are making huge losses despite their economies of scale. Many companies remain optimistic about the growth prospects for wind energy because of generous government support.

This planet of 8 billion people is bumping up against its ecological limits, and researchers are trying to quantify the effect of human activity on these finite resources. Some keep tallies of how much carbon they contribute to the atmosphere, others measure direct and indirect water consumption or keep tabs on the amount of land that our food habits demand.

Rather than fixating on the impact of the world's soaring population, the world should look at women's reproductive rights to shore up "demographic resilience," the UN said Wednesday. The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) -- the UN's sexual and reproductive health agency -- acknowledged there was widespread anxiety over the size of the world's population, which is expected to peak at around 10.4 billion during the 2080s.

On March 2023, Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell's Municipal Law Department issued a decision (pdf) disapproving two sections of the Town of Wendell's amended zoning bylaw, one of which prohibited stand-alone battery energy storage facilities in all districts. As previewed in our blog post last month, based on a footnote in the former AG's disapproval of the Town of Carver's zoning moratoria on battery storage systems, Attorney General Campbell has taken the position that M.G.40A, § 3 (colloquially known as the Dover Amendment) protects battery storage systems as "structures that facilitate the collection of solar energy"- even as stand-alone systems.

Agriculture is on the very frontlines of our changing climate. Climate change directly affects many of the most fundamental aspects of agricultural production: the length of crop growing seasons; the ranges of insects, weeds, and crop diseases; the availability of water; the threat of wildfires; and the health of agricultural workers and livestock. At the same time, many farms are uniquely positioned to help respond to and combat climate change. Through various approaches, commonly called "Climate-Smart Agriculture" (CSA), growers are adopting sustainable farming practices, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, conserving natural resources, and enhancing productivity and resilience. .

Happy Earth Month! In today's blog, we observe the historic investment opportunity presented by the convergence of efforts to address climate change and spur the energy transition, such as public grant programs, regulatory regimes, and, the biggest lever, tax credits. It's fair to observe that it's about time, because many of these initiatives have been attempted in some shape or form for decades, but only now have succeeded.
