A landmark plan led by the Duchy of Cornwall and the Central Dartmoor Landscape Recovery Project sets out a long-term roadmap to restore Dartmoor’s ecosystems, safeguard its carbon-rich peatlands, and support local communities in the face of mounting climate pressures.
Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has hailed the dawn of a “golden age” for clean energy as the government pledges £14.2 billion to build Sizewell C, the UK’s first state-owned nuclear power station in over 30 years.
Integrity is the backbone of effective carbon markets. This guide helps you understand the core criteria for assessing credit quality and driving real climate impact.
Global energy investment is on track to reach a record $3.3 trillion in 2025, with clean technologies leading the charge. Grid infrastructure and regional equity continue to be the key barriers to further progress.
Sustainability trends have become ubiquitous in the business world, mainly due to the attention ESG is receiving. To state the obvious, this is a positive trend as it helps push companies to consider their impact on the environment, employees, and customers and ensure their governance practices are sound. However, it also incentivizes actors in the business world to try to game the system through marketing campaigns to improve their reputation.
The Wildlife Trusts and the RSPB have condemned Part 3 of Labour’s Planning and Infrastructure Bill, warning it threatens to undermine the UK's biodiversity goals by weakening protections for vital natural habitats
Europe’s push for clean energy is being undermined by a power grid system unfit for the rapid growth of renewables, according to a new report exposing widespread delays, inefficiencies, and outdated planning across the continent.
A new report from Green Alliance calls on the UK government to urgently scale up methane reduction efforts, warning that bold, near-term action is essential to slow global warming and prevent dangerous climate tipping points.

Earlier this week in Paris, Climate Action in partnership with UNEP FI, mobilised the nature and sustainable finance community for two energising days of dialogue, insight, and collaboration.
The launch of Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) was the biggest shake-up to the British planning system in decades. This new legal requirement, which aims to leave nature in a measurably better state than it was before development, is already yielding positive results. With even greater ambition, it could be transformational for nature. In this blog, I introduce how the world’s largest biodiversity compliance market is working on the ground, and how The Wildlife Trusts in England are engaging with it.
A new wave of hydrogen powered projects have been shortlisted today to help cut emissions and create thousands of jobs in the UK’s industrial heartlands.
A new review commissioned by Steve Reed, Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, and Dan Corry, former No 10 advisor under Gordon Brown, makes 29 recommendations for ‘streamlining’ regulation.
In a world grappling with climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, one fundamental driver often goes unnoticed: resource consumption. Over the past 50 years, global material use has surged by more than three times, with high-income countries responsible for disproportionately high environmental impacts. This linear approach - extract, use, dispose - has dominated economies for centuries. But the tide is turning. The circular economy presents an opportunity to redefine economic growth by designing out waste, keeping products and materials in use for longer, and regenerating natural systems.
The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs is proposing to extend the ban on peatland burning to protect habitats, cut carbon emissions, and improve air and water quality.
The Western Forest will span across Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Bristol, and Somerset.
The UK’s former net zero tsar has teamed up with the ex-UN climate chief to launch a clean power taskforce aimed at countering recent reversals on action.
