Residents gather in Port Byron to discuss carbon capture pipeline

People gathered in Port Byron to discuss concerns over a carbon capture pipeline proposal.

Wolf Carbon Solutions withdrew its plan to build a carbon capture pipeline running through parts of Scott and Clinton Counties in Iowa and parts of Rock Island and Henry Counties in Illinois. The company intends to refile its plan.

Illinois state lawmakers moved forward with a plan to issue a moratorium on building carbon dioxide pipelines. If the plan passes, pipelines would be on hold until new federal safety regulations are in place.

EU watchdog questions secrecy around lawmakers' encryption-breaking CSAM scanning proposal
The European Commission has again been urged to more fully disclose its dealings with private technology companies and other stakeholders, in relation to a controversial piece of tech policy that could see a law mandate the scanning of European Union citizens' private messages in a bid to detect child sexual abuse material (CSAM). The issue is of note as concerns have been raised about lobbying by the tech industry influencing the Commission's drafting of the controversial CSAM-scanning proposal. The preliminary finding of maladministration by the EU's ombudsman, Emily O'Reilly, was reached on Friday and made public on its website yesterday.

How European disability tech startups are leveraging AI
Making life better for people with disabilities is a laudable goal, but accessibility tech hasn't traditionally been popular among VCs. In 2022, disability tech companies attracted around $4 billion in early-stage investments, which was a fraction of fintech’s intake, for example.
