SDG 13: Climate Action
SDG 13 calls for urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts.
Roles of Cu(I) in H2O activation for electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to C2+ compoundsCO2
Copper is the promising catalyst for CO2 electrocatalytic reduction to ethylene and ethanol, but the working state of Cu is under dispute. The operando spectroscopy confirms the presence of Cu+ in a nanocomposite during CO2RR. The catalyst with Cu+ promotes H2O activation, enhancing C2 formation.
Aerosols from boreal fires are making the Arctic warmer!
Climate warming is widely recognized as a key driver of boreal wildfires. Our satellite-constrained modelling reveals a positive feedback loop: boreal fires, driven largely by climate warming, intensify Arctic warming through aerosol emissions.

Tackling Bitcoin’s global climate challenge requires a global effort
Burned Area Increasingly Explained by Climate Change
Climate change is increasingly recognized as a key driver of wildfire activity. But the seemingly simple question, "How much has climate change altered burned area?" has not been answered before. Here, we provide a first quantification of this.
