As part of a multi-pronged approach toward curbing the effects of greenhouse gas emissions, scientists seek to better ...

The technique is pretty straightforward and potentially very cheap, but will need to be scaled up significantly to make a difference.

Scientists have taken a critical next step in creating a scalable process to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and 'recirculate' it as a renewable fuel. Chemists now describe their latest ...

Scientists have discovered how to turn common minerals into materials that spontaneously remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. In the lab, the materials pull CO2 from the air thousands ...

Rising temperatures make plants lose more water, weakening their ability to absorb carbon dioxide and survive heat stress.

Spreading crushed rocks on fields can absorb CO2 from the air – now chemists have devised a way to turbocharge this process ...

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's forests are crucial in combating climate change. They absorb nearly 50% of Pakistan's carbon emissions.

The Norway maple is a medium to large deciduous tree, introduced into North America in the 1700s. Often mistaken for the native sugar maple, Norway maple leaves are typically larger and turn yellow in ...

Every day, millions of engines and factories burn fossil fuels, releasing carbon dioxide – a greenhouse gas that traps heat in Earth's atmosphere and ...

China's space agency has successfully produced oxygen and ethylene—essential rocket fuel ... Instead, Chinese researchers intend to use semiconductor catalysts to convert carbon dioxide at standard ...

Jovine, the cofounder and chief scientist of Brilliant Planet, is trying to engineer high-growth microalgae strains to capture and bury carbon as biomass in the ground for 1,000 years. In August 2023, ...

Methanotrophic Bacteria Methanotrophs might be small, but they pack a powerful punch when it comes to turning methane, a dangerous greenhouse gas, into harmless compounds. Methane has an alarming ...
