Does the fossil fuel divestment movement impact new oil and gas fundraising?

Journal of Economic Geography, 2020
This article explores whether increasing fossil fuel divestment commitments are related to the reduction of capital flows into the oil and gas sector, based on an analysis of syndicated lending, equity and bond underwriting across 33 countries from ...

Side Reaction Pathway Modulation for Hydrogen Evolution‐Free Aqueous Zn‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A ZnO–TeO2–Te ternary composite layer with a unique rice grain‐like morphology is spontaneously formed on the Zn anode via telluric acid additive. This functional interphase effectively suppresses side reactions such as zinc hydroxide sulfate formation, hydrogen evolution, and Zn corrosion, enabling highly reversible and stable Zn metal cycling in ...

Carbon offsetting of fossil fuel emissions through afforestation is limited by financial viability and spatial requirements

Communications Earth & Environment
Burning the reserves of the 200 largest fossil fuel companies could generate 673 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide, far exceeding the remaining 400-gigatonne budget needed to limit warming to 1.5 °C by 2050.

Backbone Heterojunction Photocatalysts for Efficient Sacrificial Hydrogen Production

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, a ‘single‐component’ organic semiconductor photocatalyst is presented in which a molecular donor is bonded to a polymer acceptor. The resultant material demonstrates exceptional photocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution in aqueous triethylamine with an outstanding external quantum efficiency of 38% at 420 nm.

Reevaluating the Activity of ZIF‐8 Based FeNCs for Electrochemical Ammonia Production

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Though receiving much attention, the field of electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) to ammonia is marked by doubts about whether this reaction is possible in aqueous media. This work sheds light on this question for iron single‐atom on N‐doped carbon (FeNC) catalysts—a class of well‐known catalysts that is also worth testing for the sister
