CASCADE, Mich. — Looking for a fun activity to do at home with your kids? This science experiment is fun for all ages and teaches how oxygen and carbon dioxide have different densities! Meteorologist ...

As scientists look for ways to help remove excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, a number of experiments have focused on employing this gas to create usable fuels. Both hydrogen and methanol have ...

In 2012, researchers tested a method for trapping carbon dioxide emissions deep underground at a pilot site in Iceland. This picture was taken at the experiment site in 2014. (Credit: Juerg Matter) ...

Scientists can study Earth’s climate as far back as 800,000 years by drilling core samples from deep underneath the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica. Detailed information on air temperature and ...

As we ponder engineering ecosystems to sequester carbon, we must keep in mind the long-term response of these systems. Many past studies have looked at short-term changes in ecosystem responses to ...

Most people interested in climate change have seen the plots showing strong correlations between CO2 and temperature going back several hundred thousand years: FIGURE: Data from the Vostok ice core in ...

A controversial ‘ocean fertilization’ experiment suggests seeding the seas with iron to boost carbon-absorbing phytoplantkon will not sequester much carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Some — ...

As we continue to burn vast amounts of fossil fuels, a group of scientists has said that humans have never lived on Earth with such high concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, in what ...
