Farming for Climate Change Solution
The Earth’s atmosphere currently has the highest concentration of CO? in a million years, according to data from the American Meteorological Society. However, natural rock
Optimizing CO2 Capture with Electrochemical Cell
A new method for carbon dioxide (CO?) capture has been developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The new technique uses an
Rain in Dry Zones Increases CO2
The dry regions of the Earth are affecting CO2 concentrations more than previously thought. When it rains at the end of the dry season on
Algae Panels: Oxygen, Power, Biomass
Mexican start-up Greenfluidics has developed an algae panel for buildings that can produce oxygen, electricity, and biomass. Algae can remove significantly more CO2 from the
Plug-in Hybrid Cars’ Real Consumption
A recent study has revealed that the real-world fuel consumption and emissions of plug-in hybrid vehicles are significantly higher than official test results suggest. Plug-in
Plastic Waste vs CO? Emissions
A new CO2 absorber made from pyrolyzed plastic waste has been developed that can remove greenhouse gases from exhaust fumes in an energy-efficient and cost-effective
Platinum’s Impossible Reaction Decoded
Researchers have discovered a metastable state that explains why a platinum catalyst can be active below its threshold temperature. Platinum is a central component of
CO2’s Anti-Greenhouse Effect Underestimated
A new study conducted by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) has found that the anti-greenhouse effect of CO2 has been underestimated. The study shows
World’s Longest CO? Monitoring Interrupted by Volcanic Eruption
The world’s longest continuous carbon dioxide (CO?) measurement series has been interrupted by an eruption of Mauna Loa, the largest active volcano on Earth. The
Sustainable Biofuel from Modified Gut Bacteria
Scientists at the University of California in Berkeley and the University at Buffalo have developed a method to produce biofuels from genetically modified Escherichia coli
