Cement-based materials provide a potential solution for mitigating climate change by trapping and storing atmospheric carbon dioxide as minerals, via a process known as carbonation. Despite extensive ...

New research 1 shows that a genetically modified algal strain can capture carbon dioxide (CO2) and turn the greenhouse gas into twice as much biofuel compared to the wildtype strain, while also having ...

In the past, these tiny single-celled organisms slowed down the increase of CO₂ in the atmosphere – at a time when greenhouse gas levels were rising sharply Some Fourteen thousand years ago, algal ...

Research led by polar scientists from Northumbria University has revealed new hope in natural environmental systems found in East Antarctica which could help mitigate the overall rise of carbon ...

Porous carbon materials with good microwave absorption properties were prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction and high-temperature carbonization using inexpensive coal tar pitch as carbon source. Porous ...

The latest Emissions Gap Report by the UN shows that the world has to cut current emissions by 45% to avoid reaching the dreaded 1.5 degrees temperature rise. According to the report, the signatories ...
