Amid escalating concerns over carbon emissions, a potential game-changer emerges from an unexpected source: algae. Ground-breaking research has led to the creation of bioengineered algae that can ...

African forests are now emitting more carbon dioxide than they absorb, a fundamental shift that will make it more difficult for the world to cut its net emissions to zero. Forests and shrubby ...

Why can’t machines process CO2 the way trees do? Tom Brewer | Ponder, Texas There are machines that absorb CO2, but they do it differently from trees. When plants perform photosynthesis, the carbon ...

One in a new generation of computer climate models that include the effects of Earth’s carbon cycle indicates there are limits to the planet’s ability to absorb increased emissions of carbon dioxide.

The last time the atmosphere contained as much carbon dioxide as it does now, dinosaurs roamed what was then a verdant landscape. The earth’s lushness was at least partly caused by the abundance of ...

As Earth warms, the Arctic Ocean’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is waning due to melting permafrost and worsening coastal erosion, according to new research. A study published ...

Alphabet, Stripe, Shopify, and other companies struck a deal with startup Lithos to capture CO2 using rocks. It’s a major boost to a tactic for fighting climate change that has yet to prove itself at ...

The carbon dioxide removal company Equatic has begun designing its largest plant yet. The project will be North America's first commercial-scale CDR plant, scheduled to go online by 2027. Many ...

EU target assumes forests will absorb millions of tonnes of C02 But damage to forests means they are absorbing less Less intense logging, more diverse trees could ...
