Realistically, coal-fired generating facilities will be part of the world’s energy mix for decades to come. Capturing a significant proportion of carbon emissions from going up the smokestacks of coal-poweredContinue Reading
For decades, carbon capture has seemed like a promising solution. Why not just take all the carbon dioxide that’s baking the planet and put it somewhere else? The short answer: theContinue Reading
Scientists are exploring how viruses found in ocean water and Arctic ice could potentially aid in capturing carbon emissions and are researching methods to amplify their effectiveness. As an Ohio StateContinue Reading
Carbon dioxide is actually used for a bunch of things today. The global market for bulk CO2 is about 230 million tons a year, which sounds like a lot, exceptContinue Reading
In order to arrest the pace of climate change we need to upgrade the gas- and coal-fired power plants with carbon capture technology (a means of trapping carbon pollution fromContinue Reading
Extreme climate events are pushing scientists to explore innovative ways to combat rising carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels. Oceanographers are investigating chemical and biological methods to enhance the natural ability ofContinue Reading
Imagine a world where butter fights climate change. That’s the ambitious goal of Savor, a company backed by Bill Gates, which is creating butter from captured carbon dioxide (CO2). ThisContinue Reading
Excess carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is a major contributor to climate change. But what if we could turn this threat into a solution? Researchers at the University ofContinue Reading
