EU cracks down on e-waste:<\/strong> EU consumers may be able to request repairs for their worn-out home appliances between five to 10 years after purchase in a bid to crack down on consumer goods being trashed and replaced, Reuters<\/a> reported. The new rule being discussed by the EU's executive branch would apply to fridges, vacuum cleaners, televisions, washing machines and other consumer goods deemed \u201crepairable\u201d under EU law. The inclusion of smartphones and tablets is also being considered. Companies could have the option to charge consumers for their repair once the guarantee expires, according to the newswire.<\/p>\n

Shell\u2019s scenario illustrated that if the world limits its emissions in line with the Paris agreement, the demand for direct air capture would rise to 66 exajoules<\/a> by the end of the century\u2014 more than the amount of energy needed to heat the world\u2019s homes in the same period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
