In September this year, US Energy Secretary Chris Wright claimed that nuclear fusion could be harnessed within the next five years, with its application to the electricity grid expected within eight to fifteen years. Fusion research has been ongoing for over a century, with experiments beginning in the 1950s. To date, the most successful nuclear fusion experiment was almost 30 years ago, achieving an energy output equal to 0.67 times the input. Unlike nuclear fission, fusion has recentl...

In April, the International Maritime Organisation held the 83rd session of its Environment Protection Committee, where it established a system of penalties and rewards to advance shipping decarbonisation. This follows 2023 industry commitments to reduce emissions by 30% by 2030. Alasdair speaks with Simon Bullock about whether the recent agreement is strong enough to meet climate goals and explores practical actions that can be taken now without relying on greenwashing, expensive infras...
