Environmental Defense Fund and partners started an engagement process in Colombia to demonstrate how engaging key local and Indigenous stakeholders could lead to better policy design to protect forests in the country.

The passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act is driving a boom in green jobs with more than 15 states building new factories or production lines to manufacture electric vehicles, batteries, components and chargers.

In 2022 and 2023, EDF and Deloitte published two reports that focused on climate change impacts on agriculture finance institutions.

A new guide from EDF and Deloitte offers five strategies for agricultural finance institutions to manage climate risks and act on climate opportunities.

We scoured SXSW, the Austin mega festival, for the coolest climate tech, climate talks, climate ideas. From the sublime to the ridiculous, here are a few of our faves.

This resource from EDF uses a set of core objectives to help governments, companies, investors, and local communities design and engage with decarbonization hub projects in a way that sets a new bar for industrial innovation.

A new, global hydrogen energy industry is poised to take off, attracting hundreds of billion of dollars in investments. However, hydrogen is an indirect greenhouse gas with a powerful near-term climate impact that is often overlooked. Scientists have raised concerns that hydrogen leaks could negate the expected climate benefits of using hydrogen energy. Real-world data on hydrogen emissions is lacking, but a groundbreaking new technology can help.

MethaneSAT will fill critical gaps in the capabilities of existing methane satellites and be a powerful tool to accelerate climate action.

In this report, EDF establishes best practices for investors and companies seeking to credibly and quickly address methane emissions.

New research from Environmental Defense Fund provides a high-level overview of how four technology fields can be valuable tools in agricultural operations and contribute to agroecological goals.

Forest carbon credits may prove to be a useful tool to reduce net carbon emissions from land use and supplement overall emissions reductions. New research from EDF refines previous research by accounting for more variability in ecological factors that affect carbon sequestration.

Facing $150 billion annually in direct costs from climate-related disasters, the current system of disaster recovery in the U.S. is failing many families and communities. A new pilot program from EDF and partners could help address gaps in assistance and increase equity in recovery.

Earlier this month, the EPA closed its comment period on proposed oil and gas methane regulations. Here are some of the highlights from EDF’s public comments.

EDF has been working with partners to make our fisheries more climate resilient. This work includes identifying solutions and developing tools so that fishery managers and fishermen can adapt to changing oceans.

The entire northeast corner of Ecuador was once inhabited by the A’i Cofán people, but the population has dwindled as the land has been fragmented by development. Protecting their land is a constant, sometimes dangerous, struggle. But there may be a glimmer of hope in the form of the largest-ever public-private partnership that invests in protecting the forest.

Climate innovation is the process of creating, testing and scaling up new climate solutions. Here's how it works and why it matters.

Households with Insurance recover faster from disaster, but many people don't have the coverage they need to face floods, wildfires and other extreme weather events. EDF and partners are developing new insurance products that can help bring coverage to more people with less cost, and build resilience to a changing climate.

A new study from EDF and Carbon Mapper offers insights into just how much climate pollution specific oil companies may be responsible for.

Two reports commissioned by EDF offer valuable insights and recommendations on how to best design and evaluate clean energy and innovation programs.

There is extraordinary excitement today over zero and low carbon hydrogen. But can it live up to the silver-bullet hype?  To understand the tradeoffs, we compared the total energy required to perform the same tasks using either green hydrogen or direct electrification.

EDF's Climate Tech Convening in San Francisco was split between decarbonizing the transportation sector and carbon removal.

The first priority in fighting climate change is drastically reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, according to EDF's Chief Scientist.

In a new report, EDF and Ceres offer a roadmap for how local, state, and federal policymakers can improve the disaster insurance system to make it more inclusive.

While transactions in the oil and gas industry can increase reputational, climate, and transition risks, they also present opportunities for industry players to lead on creating a new paradigm for oil and gas transactions that is more compatible with global net zero goals. A new report from EDF and Ceres outlines ways to take advantage of these opportunities.
