Brazilian brand Malwee and Singaporean label Kemunna unveiled CO2-capturing t-shirts at London Fashion Week.

A single tee can capture 12.6 grams of CO2, with 25 shirts absorbing as much as one mature tree does in a day.

Future fashion won’t just reduce environmental harms, it will actively contribute to sustainability goals.

Home Depot is requiring corporate employees to work an eight-hour shift in stores each quarter.

Uber is launching an OpenAI-powered assistant to help answer EV-related questions for drivers, such as where to charge them and which one to buy.

The AI assistant will be coupled with an “EV mentorship program,” where highly rated EV drivers can earn cash rewards for mentoring others.

By providing information on demand, Uber is hoping more drivers will make the switch to electric and lower the company’s overall carbon footprint.
