Woodside ditches clean energy targets, shifts $7bn investment
x/conservation-council-of-western-australia
— 1d
Woodside Energy is abandoning its Scope 3 emissions targets and scrapping a US$5 billion plan for new energy products and lower-carbon services by 2030, shifting toward higher returns and reviewing projects like Beaumont New Ammonia as part of a broader strategic reset that coincides with a rise in half-year profits. The move drew sharp criticism from the Conservation Council of Western Australia, which called it grossly negligent and warned it betrays climate obligations while the company argues the energy transition pace requires reprioritization.

Trump Media pivots to Truth API licensing
x/donald-john-trump
— Aug 8, 2026
Trump Media & Technology Group reports a 89% year-over-year Q2 revenue rise to $1.7 million driven by Truth+ and Truth API, but posts a $238.1 million quarterly net loss due to unrealized digital asset and equity losses, as it pursues a liquidity-backed path toward a planned Q4 2026 merger with TAE Technologies and expands Truth Social and related platforms. The company is shifting away from crypto initiatives, scrapping Crypto.com CRO plans and pivoting toward media, data licensing, and the TAE deal, while valuation analyses suggest the stock trades at a premium relative to cash flow and book value despite ongoing profitability challenges.

Carney: US aluminum tariffs burden American buyers, threaten trade talks
Business
— Aug 6, 2026
A set of analyses argues that U.S. tariff policies have mostly been borne by American households and manufacturers rather than foreign producers, undermining the promised payoffs of tariffs. Experts also warn that effective policy must cover the entire aluminum value chain, address downstream products, and consider the new reality where scrap becomes a strategic asset in global supply, while noting sentiment that tariffs raise U.S. costs and spur potential broader trade deals.

NZ emissions stall, threaten climate targets
Environment
— Jul 21, 2026
New Zealand’s Climate Change Commission warns that emissions reductions are stalling and the country is at high risk of missing its 2031–2035 budgets and 2050 targets unless the pace more than doubles in the next 1–2 years, with action now critical. Key gaps include scrapped agricultural methane pricing, fragile emissions trading signals, and insufficient progress on deploying low‑emission technologies like electric vehicles, solar, and heat pumps to close the policy and implementation gap.
