From Sustainable to Regenerative Farming Shift Sustainability has become something of a buzzword over the years. From the clothes we wear and the energy that powers our homes to the way we live our lives, the idea of sustainable production and consumption has become commonplace. That is also true about the way we grow and consume food. Recently, however, another term has come to the fore: regenerative agriculture. It sounds attractive, somehow better than sustainable, but what does it really mean? Regenerative agriculture began as a grassroots approach to farming led by farmers . It has been described in many different ways, but a common thread is a set of values . People might be drawn to the word "regenerative" because it evokes a sense of improvement rather than just maintaining the status quo - for example, efforts to rebuild a system and our values. That last bit - rebuilding not only the system but our values - is really important. Values often include care for the environment, a responsibility to nature and cultivation of good food. Just like there are many ways to grow food, there are also many languages, voices and histories that express the ways that food can be cultivated in alignment with...

Proton just hit its best quarterly sales since 2004 with 49,140 units delivered, growing 40% year-over-year. What makes this striking is that Malaysia heavily subsidizes fuel, yet EV and electrified models are still winning buyers over.

The 40+ Sustainable Systems Inside Amazon's Delivery Station Buildings and construction make up 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the Carbon Leadership Forum. Amazon is working towards its goal to decarbonise its global operations through improvements in its network of fulfillment centres and delivery stations. Its new delivery station, DII5, has been designed with more than 40 market-ready technologies to help it operate sustainably. Sustainable construction initiatives Located in Elkhart, Indiana, DII5 is designed to reduce Amazon’s resource use and emissions. It features more than 170 EV charging stations outside the facility. Amazon’s goal with the facility is to gather data on the sustainability initiatives used and how well they work. It plans to use this data to find out which initiatives offer the right balance of cost and performance, offering insights on which technologies can be scaled globally. Daniel Mallory, Vice President of Global Realty at Amazon, says: “We have experimented with and implemented a lot of sustainability initiatives over the years. “DII5 continues that effort by taking a culmination of a lot of big ideas not just in how we operate our facilities, but in how we build them. “And it’s going to help us as we steadily climb toward our sustainability goals.” Using...

From trees to jet turbines: New law boosts Hayward sustainable fuel project The town of Hayward doesn’t see $1.5 billion business opportunities coming its way every day, and even fewer that would connect forestry to sustainable energy. But that’s the idea behind a proposed partnership between a German firm and a local timber business to build a plant that would convert woody biomass into sustainable aviation fuel. “This facility would use 100-year-old technology known as gasification and Fischer–Tropsch,” said Bill Johnson of Johnson Timbers, the local partner on the project. “We actually worked with this technology in the past during both the Bush and Obama administrations and built a pilot plant utilizing similar technologies down in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, using biomass from Wisconsin.” To help land it, the state Legislature passed an incentive package called the Forestry Revitalization Bill, signed into law last week by Gov. Tony Evers. Johnson and state Rep. Chanz Green of Grand View, a co-sponsor of the bill, joined WPR’s Robin Washington on “Morning Edition” to talk about the project. The following interview has been edited for brevity and clarity. Robin Washington: Tell us about your German partner. Bill Johnson: Synthec Fuels was formed six years ago. They originally started working on hydrogen technology and were going to...

Sustainable Steel Buyers Platform Invites Producer Input on Asia-Pacific Iron and Steel ... RMI-led buyers platform issues non-binding request for information to examine feasible low-emissions iron and steel supply options, timelines, and trade considerations Boulder, CO – April 6, 2026 — The Sustainable Steel Buyers Platform (SSBP), an international initiative accelerating steel decarbonization through collaborative procurement and market action founded by energy transition nonprofit Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), has launched a Request for Information (RFI) for iron and steel producers and project developers serving Asia-Pacific markets. The RFI is intended to improve understanding between buyers and suppliers regarding feasible future supply options in the world’s largest steel-producing region. Today, conventional steelmaking remains one of the most carbon-intensive industrial activities, accounting for approximately 7% of global carbon dioxide emissions. Near-zero emissions steel is increasingly in demand as companies accelerate efforts to address emissions hotspots in their supply chains and meet climate commitments. The SSBP was launched in 2023 to help bridge the gap between supply and demand for near-zero-emissions iron and steel, which is projected to reach over 6 megatons annually by the end of the decade in the region. The newest demand aggregation effort will apply the SSBP framework to Asia-Pacific markets, adapting it to regional production, trade, and investment cycles. “By bringing...

OCBC aims to support 12,000 SMEs with sustainable financing by 2028 SINGAPORE - OCBC Bank is ramping up its green efforts with a new target to support 12,000 small and medium enterprises (SMEs) through sustainable financing. These SMEs operate in four core markets, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Indonesia, the bank said on April 7. Its new target aligns with a new corporate strategy, announced by OCBC chief executive Tan Teck Long during the bank’s earnings briefing in February, which includes continuing support for green transition. The new target builds on momentum in the bank’s sustainable finance loan portfolio for SMEs. OCBC has provided sustainable financing to 5,000 SMEs as of end-2025. In 2025, the number of SMEs supported with sustainable financing rose 34 per cent, while total commitments grew about 40 per cent. The number of sustainability-linked loans to SMEs more than doubled, signalling growing readiness among SMEs to adopt measurable sustainability targets. Over 70 per cent of these borrowers are small SMEs with less than 25 employees, in sectors such as building and construction, manufacturing as well as transport and logistics. Once achieved, the target is expected to drive OCBC’s SME sustainable finance commitments from nearly $13 billion at end-2025 to $25 billion by 2028. The bank noted that...

Bend brewery highlights sustainable hops and natural growing practices BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- At Worthy Brewing in Bend, sustainability is showing up in both the brewery’s hops and the produce grown for its menu. The brewery says many of its hops come from Indy Hops, an Oregon-based company that works with growers using environmentally responsible practices. Some of those hops are certified through Salmon-Safe, a program that recognizes farms and other land uses that adopt science-based methods to reduce pollution, manage stormwater and improve water quality to help protect salmon habitat. Salmon-Safe also says its beer-related program highlights craft brewers sourcing certified hops and malts from Northwest watersheds. “We primarily use a lot of hops grown here in the state of Oregon. Through Indy Hops is one of them — especially where they have Salmon Safe certification which helps with reducing erosion as well as pesticide use which make it safe for salmon and other aquatic life,” said Worthy Brewing's Brewmaster, Nick Robbins. The Oregon Department of Agriculture says it regulates pesticide sale, use and distribution under Oregon’s Pesticide Control law, along with federal pesticide rules. The agency says every pesticide sold in Oregon must be registered, labels are legally enforceable, and some products require applicator licensing and certification...

Building more sustainable AI-ready digital infrastructure As artificial intelligence (AI) applications grow in capability, so do their energy demands. Even routine tasks such as image generation can be energy-intensive. A 2024 study by Carnegie Mellon University researchers and open-source AI platform Hugging Face found that generating 1,000 images with AI tools consumes about 2.9 kWh on average – roughly equivalent to the energy needed to fully charge a typical smartphone per image, depending on the system’s computing requirements. This is placing new pressure on data centres to scale capacity while rethinking how infrastructure is designed and operated. The challenge is no longer only about how much power is available, but how efficiently and sustainably it can be used. Bridge Data Centres (BDC), a Singapore-headquartered data centre platform with hyperscale facilities across Asia Pacific, is addressing this by diversifying its energy sources through partnerships with renewable energy firms while optimising how its facilities consume power and water. These efforts form part of a longer-term investment of S$3 billion to S$5 billion in Singapore to develop infrastructure that can support AI workloads while aligning with sustainability goals. “Sustainability is central to BDC’s growth strategy,” said BDC CEO Eric Fan. “We have been investing in innovative technologies to enhance...

'Vegan leather' isn't as sustainable or eco‑friendly as brands might claim In a high-end fashion store or luxury car showroom, the term “vegan leather” sends a strong message of quality. For many shoppers, it promises the look and feel of real leather without using animal skins. As brands move away from animal leather, “vegan” has come to suggest something that is both kinder to animals and better for the planet. However, the reality is more complicated. While these materials remove animal products, they often replace one environmental problem with another. Vegan leather is not one material, but a broad label that covers everything from plastic coatings to plant-based surfaces, which is why regulators are starting to question vague green claims. The appeal of leather alternatives is easy to understand. Concerns about animal welfare, climate change and deforestation have pushed shoppers and brands towards options that seem more responsible. As a result, “vegan leather” is often seen as the better choice – even though how long it lasts, and where it ends up, is rarely questioned. The rise of synthetic hide For decades, these materials were known as “pleather” or vinyl. Today, better finishes have turned thin plastic films into convincing leather lookalikes. Most vegan leathers consist of polyurethane (PU) or polyvinyl...
