Autoworkers' emotions — from excitement to fear and apprehension — are running high as the United Auto Workers launches an unprecedented strike against General Motors, Ford and Stellantis at once.

Members of the United Auto Workers kicked off targeted strikes after talks with the automakers failed to result in a new contract. This is the first time the UAW is striking the Big 3 at one time.

The UAW and the Detroit automakers have just hours to reach tentative deals before the union will begin targeted strikes.

The union is prepared to strike. Auto companies say they're still waiting for counteroffers. And so far, there's no deal in sight.

Wages, benefits and job security may be at the heart of union talks with Detroit automakers — but the rise of battery-powered cars looms large in the background.

The auto industry's transition to electric vehicles is a complicating factor in tense union talks, proving to be both a headwind for the UAW and, in some ways, a source of leverage.

A road trip I took with Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm confirmed one thing: The U.S. is wrestling with an inadequate charging network (unless you're a Tesla driver).

Occidental Petroleum is investing in billion-dollar projects to suck carbon dioxide out of the sky. The effort is raising hopes — and eyebrows.

Climate groups say the world needs to pull carbon dioxide from the sky and rapidly reduce oil production to hit climate goals. An oil company argues it can pull carbon instead of phasing out oil.

A U.S. oil company is investing heavily in what could become a game-changing technology: Sucking carbon from the sky. Two business models are vying for primacy over how this technology will be used.

The American oil company Occidental Petroleum is building machines to suck carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and inject it underground. Is the technology meant to save the planet or the oil industry?

A year ago, President Biden signed into law the most significant piece of climate policy in U.S. history. It directs hundreds of billions of dollars to speed the transition away from fossil fuels.

Ford CEO Jim Farley says he's still committed to building electric vehicles, even though he's pushed forward the timeline. He says the shift reflects technical challenges, not a change in strategy.

In a wide-ranging interview, Ford's CEO shares his thoughts about his company's ramp-up in electric cars and the state of charging. (He's very happy about that Tesla deal, too.)

Trucking company Yellow is shutting down after taking a $700 million federal pandemic loan three years ago. The closure would mean the loss of approximately 30,000 jobs — 22,000 of them Teamsters.

The U.S. auto industry is experiencing unanticipated stumbles and challenges as it pivots to producing more electric vehicles, even as it makes large profits.

The proposal would increase fuel economy for cars by 2% annually — and twice as fast for trucks and SUVs. The rule would pair with the EPA's ambitious plan to promote electric vehicles.

Automakers are teaming up to build more fast charging stations in North America. Their stated goal is to build a network larger than Tesla's to help address a major concern for EV customers.
