A Nova Scotia company is testing technology that mimics nature to pull carbon dioxide from the air and safely store it in the ocean for thousands of years. The pilot project could help Atlantic Canada lead the way in ocean-based climate solutions.
A California company and Japanese ceramics maker are testing a breakthrough system that sucks carbon dioxide straight from the air at a concrete plant. The technology could help one of the world's most polluting industries clean up its act.
Scientists say emerging ocean technologies could remove eight billion extra tons of CO2 annually by 2050, turning our seas into powerful climate allies. Major tech companies are already investing tens of millions in both engineered solutions and nature-based approaches.
A Bengaluru space startup just proved the world's first privately built water-powered satellite thruster works in orbit. Bellatrix Aerospace is replacing toxic rocket fuel with cleaner, safer alternatives that could power thousands of satellites launching in coming years.
Researchers in Brazil have cracked the code for converting standard solar panels into hybrid systems that capture both electricity and heat, potentially doubling energy output. While technical challenges remain, the breakthrough opens new doors for affordable clean energy upgrades.
Scientists created a floating generator that turns tiny ocean temperature differences into electricity for marine sensors. The foot-long device works even when water and air differ by less than 10 degrees.
