How much carbon dioxide (CO2) do plants absorb from the atmosphere? This is what a recent study published in Nature hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated what’s known as the ...

A new, biomass-based material can be used to repeatedly capture and release carbon dioxide. The material is primarily made from lignin, an organic molecule that is a main component of wood and other ...

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 ...

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.

Discover how oceans, living organisms, and plants naturally absorb carbon dioxide and why plants play a vital role in our planet’s balance. Explore the groundbreaking invention by physicist Klaus ...

Capturing carbon dioxide from industrial plants is an important strategy in the efforts to reduce the impact of global ...

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 ...

Plants play a key role in regulating Earth’s climate, but recent research suggests that rising temperatures could disrupt this balance, because plants are leaking more water than previously thought.

Chemists at Stanford University transformed minerals in rocks to absorb carbon dioxide out of the air. Matthew Kanan, senior author of a new study, explained that while the Earth has an endless supply ...
