Another company is out to capture all the CO2 it has ever emitted
When it comes to offsetting carbon emissions, Microsoft has set a new precedent for companies around the world. Instead of trying to offset more emissions than it produces on a yearly basis, the company has committed to erasing its historical carbon footprint. In other words, Microsoft will capture Read More...
How spreading rock dust on farmland could remove massive amounts of CO2
Researchers are clear that cutting the fossil fuel burning that releases carbon dioxide is the most important action needed to tackle the climate emergency. But climate scientists also agree that, in addition, massive amounts of CO2 need to be removed from the air to meet the Paris Agreement goals Read More...
A supplement for cows that curbs climate change-causing burps is catching on
There’s a farm in England that now markets its milk as “climate-smart”, but what does that really mean? Apparently, Brades Farm, is one the first to begin feeding its cattle a new supplement that shrinks the amount of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, that cows emit when they belch, thus Read More...
The ultimate guide to carbon offsets that actually help the planet
Carbon offsets have skyrocketed in popularity in recent years. Most people might know them only as a little feel-good box you can check when booking a plane ticket through some carriers, but now you can buy them through various providers whenever you feel particularly carbon bloated. With that Read More...
New foam-like material makes carbon capture more sustainable and efficient
Carbon capture has been touted as an essential tool for avoiding catastrophic climate change. Capable to both reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to potentially even reverse their buildup in the atmosphere, scientists are increasingly investigating methods of capturing the carbon dioxide that's Read More...
Here are 3 carbon capture programs you can support
Transforming the entire economy to get to net-zero emissions, something that scientists say is necessary to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, will require massive and complicated transformations of nearly every aspect of society. But if you want to act on climate change now as an Read More...
Researchers have developed a more efficient way to remove CO2 from the air
While it’s vital we cut down on the amount of emissions that spew into the atmosphere, we also believe that carbon capture technology represents a powerful way to deal with excess carbon emissions. That’s why we’re keen to present to you a new device that is able to extra CO2 gas at almost Read More...
Experts and innovators from all sectors meet to boost action around CO2 capture tech
As the world is looking for new viable solutions to prevent catastrophic climate change, a new effort to rally governments and corporations behind technologies that capture planet heating gases from the atmosphere has been launched at the United Nations on Tuesday. It was the first annual Global Read More...
This algae bioreactor captures as much CO2 out of the air as two acres of trees
It’s no doubt that algae are one of our closest allies in the fight against climate change. Because of their ability to conduct photosynthesis, they represent one of nature’s most efficient machines when it comes to sequestering carbon dioxide. Now imagine optimizing that process by adding some Read More...
This production technique reduces concrete’s carbon emissions by 70 percent
The production of concrete is responsible for as much as eight percent of annual CO2 emissions. Knowing that this is a big problem for future business, manufacturers have been looking for ways to reduce their carbon emissions which come from two sources. Traditionally, about half comes from the Read More...
