How waste heat from Hamburg’s copper smelter is warming the city but not the planet
How waste heat from Hamburg’s copper smelter is warming the city but not the planet
Hamburg, in northern Germany, is home to a one-of-a-kind district heating system.
The hot water that supplies it is largely obtained from waste heat from the city’s copper smelter, meaning no CO2 is released.

Hamburg’s industrial waste heat project: a model for climate-neutral district heating?
In Hamburg, a pioneering energy project is showing how cities can become climate neutral by capturing heat that would otherwise go to waste. By using waste heat from copper production, the city now supplies clean heat to its district heating system. Could this be a model other cities follow?

Russia has issued a stark warning to Germany over its decision to lift restrictions on supplying long-range weapons to Ukraine. Moscow’s Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu threatened a “massive response” if Germany delivers Taurus missiles, calling it a move that risks direct war. Following Zelensky’s meeting with Chancellor Merz, speculation grows around German involvement. While Germany promises support in developing Ukraine’s missile capability, Russia labels the move dangerous and provocative, with some warning it could ignite a wider conflict.

NATO is expected to formally request Germany to contribute seven additional brigades—around 40,000 troops—as the alliance raises its military readiness goal to 130 brigades, a sharp increase from the current 80. The demand comes ahead of a major defense ministers' summit, amid growing concerns over Russian aggression. Germany has already pledged ten brigades by 2030 but now faces fresh pressure. NATO calls the new benchmarks “ambitious,” while Berlin prepares a ninth brigade for Lithuania. The expanded goals follow U.S. calls for allies to boost defense spending and military capabilities urgently.

Russia has issued a sharp rebuke to Germany, invoking its Nazi past and warning against its large-scale rearmament and NATO’s expansion. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called the military buildup near Russia’s borders "alarming," accusing Germany of fueling instability. As Berlin passes a $550B military fund and lifts missile restrictions with allies, Moscow warns of dire consequences. Lavrov also reignited rhetoric about “denazification,” framing Germany’s actions as provocative amid high-stakes talks between Zelensky and German Chancellor Merz.

Russia, China, and Iran are set to hold high-level trilateral talks to counter renewed EU threats of snapback sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program. Tehran claims the U.S. is not part of any negotiation and rejects new IAEA demands as biased and unlawful. While France, Britain, and Germany warn of penalties unless Iran complies, Moscow and Beijing back Tehran’s call for diplomacy. Separate Iran-EU talks in Istanbul are scheduled, but Iran maintains it will not engage with the U.S., escalating nuclear tensions ahead of a critical month.

In a dramatic escalation of Western military support to Ukraine, Germany and the United States are sending five Patriot air defense systems to Kyiv "as soon as possible." The announcement, revealed by Ukrainian media and confirmed by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, comes amid rising Russian aerial assaults and drone warfare in key battle zones.
Pistorius stressed that coordination with international partners would be finalized “within the next few days,” underlining a fast-tracked response to urgent Ukrainian defense needs. This deployment marks one of the most significant reinforcement efforts from NATO-aligned countries since the war began. Patriot systems, capable of intercepting missiles and aircraft at high altitudes, will enhance Ukraine’s capability to defend strategic infrastructure and urban centers. The plan also signals deepening U.S.-German military coordination and Western resolve to counter Russian advances. Kyiv has repeatedly called for stronger air defense amid relentless Russian bombardments of civilian and energy targets.

In a dramatic geopolitical shift, Russia has withdrawn from a long-standing military cooperation agreement with Germany, originally signed in 1996. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin's move follows a cascade of sanctions from Western allies and Germany’s support for Ukraine. Russia's Foreign Ministry labeled Berlin's stance as "openly hostile" and accused Germany of pursuing aggressive militaristic policies.
The collapse of this bilateral framework underscores Moscow's pivot toward nations like North Korea, Iran, and China. In recent weeks, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—who pledged unconditional support for Russia’s war—and Iranian officials during the BRICS summit. Meanwhile, President Putin hinted at retaliatory arming of regions to strike Western targets. As the West distances itself from Moscow, Russia deepens its ties with fellow sanctioned states, signaling a bold new strategic alignment.

EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that Brussels will delay retaliation against U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs as talks with Washington continue. President Trump disrupted months of negotiation, warning the EU of sweeping 30% tariffs unless a deal is reached by August 1. Von der Leyen confirmed preparations for countermeasures are ongoing, but emphasized the EU still prefers a negotiated solution. With $24 billion in U.S. goods at stake, the next few weeks are critical as the tariff standoff risks escalating into a full-blown trade clash.
