As the levels of carbon dioxide in the environment rapidly rise and the climate consequences of that rise become increasingly apparent, research and investment into carbon capture strategies have ...

Capturing and storing the carbon dioxide humans produce is key to lowering atmospheric greenhouse gases and slowing global warming, but today’s carbon capture technologies work well only for ...

Emissions rose 1.3 per cent to 57.1 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2023. That is a far faster annual rate of growth than during the decade 2010-2019, when emissions grew on average 0.8 ...

In the face of rising CO2 levels, scientists are searching for sustainable ways of pulling carbon dioxide out of the air, so-called direct air capture. A new type of porous material, a covalent ...

Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide to fuels and chemicals is usually mediated by metal-based catalysts. Now, a carbon electrode modified with an organic molecular catalyst demonstrates ...

The case for CCS boils down to waste disposal: we are going to make too much carbon dioxide (CO₂), so we need to start getting rid of it. By burning fossil fuels and producing cement alone ...

If you would like to learn more about the IAEA’s work, sign up for our weekly updates containing our most important news, multimedia and more. Blue Carbon refers to organic carbon captured and stored ...

This “asymmetric” warming could spell trouble for the vast amount of carbon stored in soils there by altering microbial activity more than expected. The planet’s soils store more carbon than ...

(c) Reduction of metallic oxides- some can be reduced by hydrogen, carbon and carbon monoxide (e.g. copper oxide, lead (II) oxide, iron (III) oxide and zinc oxide) and some cannot (e.g. Al 2 O 3 ...

Any agreement is likely to rely on ambitious measures to capture and remove carbon dioxide (CO2) - the main gas responsible for global warming. Techniques range from capturing CO2 before it is ...
