Carbon Capture

Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), also referred to as carbon capture, utilization and sequestration, is a process that captures carbon dioxide emissions from sources like coal-fired power plants and either reuses or stores it so it will not enter the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide storage in geologic formations includes oil and gas reservoirs, unmineable coal seams and deep saline reservoirs — structures that have stored crude oil, natural gas, brine and carbon dioxide over millions of years.

Report: Earth Reached Its First Climate Tipping Point

ATLANTA - The planet just crossed a terrifying milestone, and scientists say it could be the first domino to fall in a chain of irreversible disasters. According to CNN, a massive new report published on Sunday (October 12), just weeks before COP30 in Brazil, by more than 160 scientists worldwide, has warned that Earth has already reached its first climate tipping

Scientists Create New Molecules That Can Absorb Carbon Faster Than Trees

EDINBURGH, Scotland - A new discovery could help to turn the tides in the war against greenhouse gases. Scientists at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh have created new molecules which, thanks to their hollow and cage-like structure, can store greenhouse gases. The new material has been hailed ‘exciting’ and could remove carbon dioxide and other polluting gases from the atmosphere

MIT Researchers Clean Air Pollution Using Oceans

BOSTON - Carbon capture — commonly thought of as the use of technology to remove carbon dioxide from the air — is a hotly debated topic. Though the U.S. Department of Energy committed $131 million to various carbon capture projects, opponents claim that focus on carbon capture distracts from other, more effective strategies for combating our warming planet. Now,

Biden Releases Road Map To Scale Up Nuclear, Hydrogen, And Energy Storage

WASHINGTON DC - Last week, the Department of Energy, or DOE, released a road map for scaling up three emerging technologies that could make or break the U.S. energy transition. According to the agency, advanced nuclear, clean hydrogen, and long-duration energy storage are crucial for reaching net-zero emissions. The problem is, self-sustaining markets for these

Swiss Company Pulled CO2 Out Of Atmosphere And Stored It Underground

SWITZERLAND  - Microsoft, Stripe, and Shopify are officially the first companies in the world to pay to filter their carbon dioxide emissions out of the air, store those emissions underground, and have that service verified by a third party. Climate tech company Climeworks announced that it had completed the service, and its third-party verification of

Old Coal Power Plants Repurposed To Generate Clean Energy

NEW YORK - Across the United States, coal-fired power plants are shutting down for good. In the last twenty years, over 600 have been retired. But just because these plants aren’t burning coal doesn’t mean they aren’t still being used. A trend is now emerging in a number of states to repurpose the plants to create new jobs and supply

Study: Trains Could Become Greenhouse Gas Vacuums

 DETROIT - In a new study, a team of engineers lay out plans for train cars that can filter nearly 25 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the air for every mile they travel. The idea is manifested in CO2­Rail, a U.S.-based start-up founded by one of the study’s authors. The concept rests on a braking
