Scientists extract carbon dioxide from the ocean by turning it to rock
Human-induced climate change is one of the most prevalent threats we are facing as a species, and to combat this, we must change our way of living and innovate new solutions to temper the damage that has already been done. For instance, carbon emissions in the atmosphere need … [Read more...] about Scientists extract carbon dioxide from the ocean by turning it to rock
New technique turns carbon dioxide into jet fuel
As the aviation industry seeks to shrink its environmental footprint, a new development from Oxford University may just help airline companies reach their carbon-reduction goals. The new technology involves an experimental process that can turn carbon dioxide into jet fuel. If … [Read more...] about New technique turns carbon dioxide into jet fuel
Scientists discover way to convert captured carbon into a useful commodity
Capturing and sequestering carbon dioxide may be an efficient way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and slow climate change, but there’s something unsatisfying about this process. The gas is simply captured, compressed, and then buried deep underground. Unsatisfied with this … [Read more...] about Scientists discover way to convert captured carbon into a useful commodity
How spreading rock dust on farmland could remove massive amounts of CO2
Researchers are clear that cutting the fossil fuel burning that releases carbon dioxide is the most important action needed to tackle the climate emergency. But climate scientists also agree that, in addition, massive amounts of CO2 need to be removed from the air to meet the … [Read more...] about How spreading rock dust on farmland could remove massive amounts of CO2
