CACOR Live | Raymond Leury | The energy transition: Do we have the Required Materials? | 2 Sep 2026 at 13:30 EST
|
|
|
|
The transition to green energy will require large quantities of materials to manufacture the equipment needed for low-carbon technologies. Some essential resources—including copper, lithium, and cobalt—are limited because they are relatively scarce or difficult to extract from the Earth’s crust. This raises an important question: Are sufficient materials available to complete the energy transition? This webinar will examine these constraints and explore the many options available to address potential shortages and keep the transition moving forward..

Enchanted Worm Moon by Mary Oliver In March the earth remembers its own name. Everywhere the plates of snow are cracking. The rivers begin to sing. In the sky the winter stars are sliding away; small blades of grain will shine in the dark fields. And the name of every place is joyful. Because it is spring; because once more …

Carney claimed that Trump demanded, “Canada change its French language.” As per reports, Carney revealed that the Trump administration “introduced language in the final hours of negotiations that would have restricted Canada’s ability to make trade deals with other countries.” Accepting such terms, Carney said, would have reduced Canada to “the economic equivalent of the 51st state.” "President Trump demands Canada change …

Plant‑parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are tiny worms that live in soil and feed on plant roots. They damage roots, reduce the plant's uptake of nutrients, and lower crop yields often without plants showing any obvious symptoms. As part of a much larger soil ecosystem, PPN numbers and activities are influenced by soil microbiomes (communities of microbes living in soil), including beneficial …
