Methane is a potent greenhouse gas frequently produced in the sea and in fresh water. Lakes in particular release large quantities of this climate-killer. Fortunately, however, there are microorganisms that counteract this. ...
You probably have been hearing phrases like "climate crisis," "climate emergency" or "climate justice" more often lately as people try to get across the urgent risks and consequences of climate change. The danger is real, ...
Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have demonstrated that small molecular tweaks to surfaces can improve absorption technology for direct air capture, or DAC, of carbon dioxide.
Australia is one of the world's largest exporters of fossil fuels. While this coal and gas is burned beyond our borders, the climate-warming carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions affect us all.
Phytoplankton are small but mighty. As one of the biggest drivers of primary production in Earth's oceans, they convert sunlight and carbon dioxide (CO2) into chemical energy, forming the base of the aquatic food web and ...
Strategies aimed at reducing methane emissions might be missing the mark because of tiny but crucial pieces of the puzzle that are often overlooked—microbes.
Mature forests have a key role to play in the fight against climate change—extracting carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and locking it into new wood, a new study reveals.
Growing up on Taiwan's west coast where mollusk farming is popular, Eddie Wang saw discarded oyster shells transformed from waste to function—a memory that inspired him to create a unique and environmentally friendly fabric ...
With temperatures rising globally, the need for more sustainable cooling options is also growing. Researchers at UCLA and their colleagues have now found an affordable and scalable process to cool buildings in the summer ...
Researchers at the University of Liverpool have achieved a significant milestone in the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable fuels and chemicals, marking an important step towards a sustainable net-zero economy.
