Scientists just created the most detailed 3D forest scans ever recorded, measuring over 200,000 trees across three continents to track how forests fight climate change. The groundbreaking data will help satellites monitor Earth's forests more accurately than ever before.
India and Norway are joining forces to scale up renewable energy, targeting solar power, rare earth processing, and carbon capture technology. The partnership could accelerate clean energy deployment across both nations while opening doors for major investment.
Scientists at UNSW Sydney have cracked a major puzzle in sustainable agriculture: making fertilizer from waste carbon dioxide and pollutants instead of fossil fuels. The breakthrough could help Australia produce its own clean urea while cleaning up industrial emissions.
ExxonMobil is now capturing and storing over 3 million metric tons of carbon dioxide each year from Louisiana industrial facilities, turning the state into a hub for emissions reduction. The technology is helping energy-intensive industries cut their carbon footprint while keeping American jobs and products competitive.
Scientists in northern Norway discovered a simple way to stop Arctic farms from leaking carbon into the atmosphere: raise the water level. The two-year study found that wetter peatland farms absorbed more CO₂ than they released.
Researchers at the University of Stuttgart are perfecting a process that transforms harmful carbon dioxide emissions into valuable materials using bacteria. The breakthrough could help industries like steel and cement turn their biggest environmental problem into profit.
A Canadian cattle farm is building a groundbreaking facility that transforms livestock waste into renewable natural gas while capturing carbon. The $10 million project will power thousands of homes and cut emissions equal to taking 3,800 cars off the road.
Researchers have created a breakthrough catalyst that converts carbon dioxide into usable fuel using only sunlight, potentially transforming how we fight climate change. By precisely arranging individual metal atoms, they increased fuel production up to 44 times compared to existing methods.
India and Norway are joining forces to tackle climate change through solar power and carbon capture technology. The partnership could open billions in green investment between two nations committed to renewable energy.
India and Norway are deepening their economic partnership with a major focus on renewable energy, from solar power to carbon capture technology. The collaboration could unlock significant investments through Norway's sovereign wealth funds while accelerating both nations' climate goals.
A groundbreaking facility in Alberta will convert livestock manure into renewable natural gas while capturing carbon, turning a major pollution source into power for thousands of homes. Construction starts this summer on what will be the world's first fully integrated manure-to-energy and carbon capture plant.
Scientists created building materials embedded with living bacteria that capture carbon from the air, repair themselves, and strengthen over time. A massive installation at the Venice Architecture Biennale is testing whether these living walls can survive for months.
Scientists analyzed 36 years of satellite data and discovered boreal forests have grown by 12 percent while steadily moving northward. The expansion means these crucial forests could absorb billions more tons of carbon from our atmosphere.
India has increased its climate action spending from 3.7% to 5.6% of GDP in just six years, all while racing ahead of its renewable energy targets. The country is investing in its green future without waiting for international help.
Alberta just dropped $28 million on six groundbreaking projects that could cut 72,000 tonnes of carbon emissions yearly while growing the economy. The investments turn cow burps into clean energy, make pipelines safer, and clean up old oil sites.
A groundbreaking project in Chile is turning industrial emissions into sustainable fuel using green hydrogen and captured carbon dioxide. The initiative could establish South America's first commercial-scale facility converting renewable energy into clean transportation fuel.
Chinese researchers created a material that mimics plant photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into fuel using only sunlight. This breakthrough could produce sustainable fuel that works with existing gas stations and engines.
Chinese researchers have created a plant-inspired process that converts carbon dioxide and water into fuel components using nothing but solar energy. The breakthrough could provide sustainable alternatives for industries like aviation and shipping that can't easily switch to electric power.
A London startup just solved one of shipping's toughest environmental challenges by capturing CO2 from cargo ship exhaust and turning it into usable limestone. The technology could clean up pollution from tens of thousands of ships already on the ocean.
A California marsh that returned from industrial waste to thriving wildlife habitat is now being considered for groundbreaking carbon storage technology. The restored Montezuma Wetlands could help the state capture millions of tons of CO2 while sparking important conversations about climate solutions.
