Oped, Puttanee Kangkun and Patrick Phongsathorn, Published on 19/06/2025
» When armed conflict breaks out, it is the innocent and helpless, especially children, who suffer the most.

Oped, Navroz K Dubash, Published on 06/06/2025
» When climate change is framed as a global problem requiring collective regulation of greenhouse-gas emissions, developing-country governments see little reason to prioritise the issue over others.

Decision-makers in developing countries understandably conclude it may be more rational to hunker down and focus on climate resilience rather than emissions reductions.

» On a hot afternoon in Chanthaburi province's Koh Jik, a small island striving for 100% renewable energy, a new power system is being tested. The goal? To see if hydrogen can keep the lights on when there's no sun or wind.
