Carbon capture is becoming essential for industries that still depend on fossil fuels, including the cement and steel ...

Scientists agree that we’re going to need to build machines to suck carbon from the sky to stave off the worst impacts of climate change—but there are a lot of challenges for this new industry in the ...

It’s clear that we can no longer avoid the impacts of climate change — we’re already experiencing the economic, societal, and ecosystem impacts of extreme weather events, rising temperatures, and ...

Capturing carbon dioxide from industrial plants is an important strategy in the efforts to reduce the impact of global ...

Using nanoscale filtering membranes, researchers at MIT have added a simple intermediate step that makes the process of removing carbon dioxide from the air more efficient. Removing carbon dioxide ...

“The beauty of this method is that we solve a problem without creating a new one. By turning waste into a raw material that can actively reduce greenhouse gases, we make an environmental issue part of ...

Light-sensitive molecules called photoacids could make the process of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere more energy efficient. Researchers are now devising ways to make photoacids more ...
