A new material invented by University of California, Berkeley researchers has the potential to transform direct air capture of carbon and get us closer to zero emissions. Capturing and storing carbon dioxide (CO2) has become essential to lowering atmospheric greenhouse gasses and preventing global warming as CO2 levels continue to [...]
A recent study at the University of São Paulo uncovers the underestimated value of sustainable agriculture systems regarding GHG emissions in Brazil. Novel research, done by scientists from the Center for Nuclear Energy in Agriculture – CENA-USP and Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture – ESALQ-USP, has explored the contribution [...]
A novel discovery in concrete manufacture by the University of Northwestern’s team of engineers provides dual benefits, absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the environment while maintaining if not increasing, concrete strength. This new technique, which employs a carbonated water-based solution throughout manufacture, has the potential to greatly impact worldwide efforts to mitigate climate [...]
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a revolutionary method for carbon capture that uses activated charcoal sponge a procedure similar to battery charging. This novel technology promises to meet the urgent demand for carbon dioxide (CO2) elimination from the atmosphere, which is an essential factor in the ongoing [...]
Ships emit a considerable amount of carbon dioxide (CO2), accounting for around 3% of total human-caused CO2 emissions. With few alternatives for reducing their carbon impact, a unique technology suggests that ships could absorb CO2 emissions via a naturally occurring chemical reaction. This process includes bubbling exhaust through saltwater and limestone, converting CO2 to stable [...]
Straus Family Creamery, renowned for its leadership in organic dairy farming, has launched the innovative Organic Dairy Sustainability Incentive Program. This groundbreaking initiative is designed to fortify on-farm climate solutions by offering financial support to participating farms. Through a structured system of monthly payments, farmers are encouraged to embrace emissions-reduction [...]
As COP28 concluded with a tinge of hope for global decarbonization, scientists assert a paradigm shift, urging the integration of wild ecosystems into climate policies. Nature, a formidable ally against global warming, takes center stage, absorbing and storing half of yearly CO2 emissions. The COP28 statements highlight the vital role [...]
