Salted crops seen as powerful tool to fight climate crisis
Salt is one of the oldest and most commonly used preservatives. But could it be used to store carbon deep underground for thousands of years? Researchers think it can, and it may offer a way to lower atmospheric carbon levels. As emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide continue to rise , and the […]
Where does the carbon credit market go from here?
概要 Carbon credits, also known as carbon offsets, are licenses representing the removal of one ton of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. They can be purchased by individuals or, more commonly, companies looking to offset carbon emissions from industrial production, transport, vehicles or travel . Carbon credits serve as a transparent, measurable and outcome-based way […]
How moss creates better soil and helps fight climate change
Mosses are among the most common and overlooked plants on earth. A large new study is finally giving moss the recognition it deserves, highlighting its importance in maintaining the planet's ecosystems and its potential to reduce its carbon footprint. Moss can be found everywhere, from deserts to arctic regions. Despite their ubiquity , mosses are […]

Antarctic snowfall could affect short-term sea level rise
Based on 25 years of records from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, a team of scientists led by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) has shown that changes in Antarctica's snowfall could have a significant short-term impact on global sea level rise. Earth's climate is extremely complex, and Antarctica is one of the important engines regulating […]
Doomsday Glacier Map Reveals Future Sea Levels
A team from the British Antarctic Survey has completed the first map of the ground beneath West Antarctica's doomsday glacier, which is about the size of the UK and could raise global sea levels by 65%as it melts in the next few centuries cm ( 25 inches). Covering 192,000 square kilometers (74,000 mi²), Thwaites Glacier […]

The funding will support a new Cornerstone Initiative for the Conservation of Hawaii's Forest Birds, part […]
Coal's green potential: storing energy instead of burning it for coal
Coal is not generally considered a clean fuel source, but it may play a role in the push for green energy. The researchers say it could be an excellent material for storing hydrogen, one of the most promising sources of clean fuel currently being explored. There is no doubt that hydrogen holds great promise as […]
Cambridge reactor turns plastic waste and carbon dioxide into useful chemicals
Carbon Dioxide (C2) Emissions and Plastic Waste are two of the most present. ENTISTS May Help Tackle Both. The Team Demonstrated A New Version of their Solar Reactor, Which users sunlight to con vert CO2 and plastic bottles into useful chemicals. The Cambridge team unveiled a version of their solar reactor six months ago . […]
Manure-Powered Tractors Cut Farm Emissions
New Holland Agriculture has announced a new tractor designed to run on fuel generated on-site using cow manure. The T7 methane-powered LNG provides the same power and torque as a diesel tractor, but it is part of a system that dramatically reduces emissions. The system, which new holland is working with the british company bennamann, […]
