BP’s Group Chief Executive, Bob Dudley, spoke on climate issues during London's Chatham House Corporate Leaders series. Dudley set out the necessary components in order to achieve a net-zero emissions world, including: • Zero-carbon heat and power, provided largely by renewables and supported by decarbonized gas, including the use of carbon capture use and storage (CCUS).• Electric and hydrogen-powered cars on the roads and the skies and seas navigated by planes and ships powered by biofuels and hydrogen.• A circular economy over the throw-away culture.• Nature's power harnessed to reduce emissions through planting trees and nurturing peatlands.

The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) has revealed two new studies that offer evidence of grain-based ethanol’s potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, This new research will allow policymakers and regulators to focus on the advances being made by corn farmers and ethanol producers in sustainability and efficiency.“As the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers the GHG impacts of expanded ethanol consumption under the Renewable Fuel Standard, we urge them to strongly consider the latest science and data regarding ethanol’s tremendous carbon benefits,” said RFA President and CEO Geoff Cooper in a press release.One of the studies was carried out by the Laboratory for Applied Spatial Analysis at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE-LASA).
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is doing away with a policy that allows pollution enforcement officials to drop in unannounced for inspections at power and chemical plants.In a July 11 memo shared with EPA, regional administrators outlined a new enforcement policy that would do away with surprise inspections tactics.The new policy would stop agency officials from conducting inspections at facilities without giving prior notice to the states involved, as a way to increase communication between agencies, states, and regulatory bodies.“A ‘no surprises' principle is the foundation of joint work planning and will minimize the misunderstandings that can be caused by the lack of regular, bilateral communication,” wrote Susan Bodine, Assistant Administrator for Enforcement and Compliance Assistance in the memo.
