Aenert news. Environment & Climate ChangePublished annually since 2005, the Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI-2025) monitors the climate mitigation performance of 63 countries and the EU in four categories: GHG Emissions, Renewable Energy, Energy Use, and Climate Policy. Traditionally, the first three places in the overall ranking were again left unoccupied, since as in all previous years, no country...

Environment & Climate ChangeThe recent publication by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations The State of the World’s Forests 2024 (SOFO-2024) provides an update on the state of the world's forests and explores innovations for scaling up forest conservation, restoration and sustainable use – from new technologies to successful policies and institutional changes and new...
Aenert news. Environment & Climate ChangeAccording to Eurostat, greenhouse gas emissions in the EU economy amounted to 894 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent in the first quarter of 2024. This is 4.0% less than in the same quarter of 2023, when emissions were at 931 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent. In absolute terms, emissions decreased by 37.7 million tonnes. The list of greenhouse gases...
Aenert news. Energy resources and infrastructureThe 2024 edition of the World Bank’s Global Gas Flaring Tracker Report reveals that the world came back to the high levels of gas flaring last seen in 2019. Global gas flaring at upstream oil and gas facilities increased by 7%, from 139 bcm in 2022 to 148 bcm in 2023. This shows that the global efforts to reduce gas flaring have not been successful and rapid action...
Aenert news. Environment & Climate ChangeThe Environmental Performance Index 2024 traditionally assesses the global state of sustainable development in 180 countries, analyzing their effectiveness in protecting ecosystems and mitigating climate change. Compared to the 40 indicators in the previous edition, EPI-2024 has expanded to 58 indicators across three policy goals, with each level weighted as a...
Aenert news. Environment & Climate ChangeAccording to Global Footprint Network’s newest calculations, this year's Earth Overshoot Day falls on August 1, marking a time when humanity has used as much from nature as the planet's ecosystems can renew in an entire year. This means that between the 1st of January and the 1st of August, mankind used so many resources that the Earth needs 12 months...
Aenert news. Environment & Climate ChangeClimate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time which requires immediate action to avert its harmful effects. One instrument to counteract this development is an efficient CO2 capture technology. This requires complex processes and digital systems to optimise big data prediction as well as to reduce production time. A mathematical and statistical...
Aenert news. RatingsEach year since 2005, the Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI) compares the climate performance of the countries, which account for more than 90% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Traditionally, the CCPI-2024 assesses four categories: Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Renewable Energy, Energy Consumption and Climate Policy. This year’s edition tracks the...
