Using nanoscale filtering membranes, researchers at MIT have added a simple intermediate step that makes the process of removing carbon dioxide from the air more efficient. Removing carbon dioxide ...
Carbon dioxide has been identified as one of the greenhouse gases responsible for global warming. Several carbon capture and storage technologies have been developed to mitigate the large quantities ...
Earlier this year, scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, filled a device with bright-yellow powder, connected it to a tube, and stuck the tube through the wall of a lab. Over the next ...
Capturing and storing the carbon dioxide humans produce is key to lowering atmospheric greenhouse gases and slowing global warming, but today’s carbon capture technologies work well only for ...
Climate change. It’s bad, and it’s getting worse. The main cause is burning fossil fuels, which spews CO 2 into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide, as we all know too well by now, is a greenhouse gas, ...
Scientists have found that an item widely used in kitchens can absorb planet-heating carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, in what they hope will become a low-cost and efficient tool to slow climate ...
Last year, the world emitted more than 37 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide, setting a new record high. As a result, sucking CO2 out of the atmosphere has become an increasingly popular idea.
Sucking CO2 out of the air is still a very costly endeavor, but one company has taken a big stride toward making the technology commercially viable. Sucking CO2 out of the air is still a very costly ...
The carbon dioxide that humans produce is one of the key causes of global warming, and reversing the overwhelming presence of this greenhouse gas has been the focus of environmental efforts for ...
