Through burning fossil fuels, humans are rapidly driving up levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which in turn is raising global temperatures. But not all the CO2 released from burning coal, ...

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 ...

The natural processes of plants was an inspiration for a new mitigation method. Researchers have found a new way to store thousands of years' worth of carbon dioxide and prevent it from being released ...

New research paints an uncharacteristically upbeat picture for the planet. This is because more realistic ecological modelling suggests the world's plants may be able to take up more atmospheric CO2 ...

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.

Researchers at the University of Chicago designed an air filter that could transform any building into a carbon capture ...
