CASCADE, Mich. — Looking for a fun activity to do at home with your kids? This science experiment is fun for all ages and teaches how oxygen and carbon dioxide have different densities! Meteorologist ...
Why do just one experiment at a time when you can do ten? Researchers have developed an automated system, which allows them to research catalysts, electrodes, and reaction conditions for CO2 ...
In this atomic-scale illustration, trace amounts of oxygen (red) just beneath a copper (blue) surface, play a key role in driving a catalytic reaction in which carbon dioxide (black and red molecules) ...
Scientists have been using powerful computer models combined with laboratory experiments to study how a kind of clay can soak up carbon dioxide and store it. The atmospheric level of carbon dioxide -- ...
American forests are important sources of carbon sequestration, storing millions of tons of carbon dioxide each year. However, a unique experiment led by Peter Reich, University of Michigan professor ...
Globally, the world’s forests absorb around 7.6 billion tonnes of CO2 per year, once emissions from forest fires, deforestation and other disturbances are accounted for. Temperate forests, such as ...
Marine geoengineering projects are on the rise: In Nova Scotia, one start-up is pumping a bright pink slurry of magnesium oxide into the ocean. Off the coast of North Carolina, another company ...
An experiment in western China over the past four decades shows that it is possible to tame the expansion of desert lands with greenery, and, in the process, pull excess carbon dioxide out of the sky.
Researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a light-activated, ligand-based catalyst that transforms carbon dioxide into formate with remarkable selectivity. The process mimics ...
