A billion-dollar climate technology that looked promising on paper turned out to make emissions worse, not better. Scientists just proved we dodged a costly bullet by not building it everywhere.

The expensive carbon capture technology that climate models relied on to save the planet isn't happening, and scientists say that's a win. Bioenergy with carbon capture would have made emissions worse for decades while costing taxpayers billions.

A heavily promoted climate technology is proving too costly and ineffective to deploy at scale. Scientists say the failure is actually steering investment toward better solutions.

Energy companies Idex and Nuada have opened France's first major BECCS facility capable of removing 10,000 tons of CO2 annually. This breakthrough hub marks a significant step in Europe's fight against climate change.
