“Soil is a very good natural insulator and can naturally deplete oxygen to prevent wood debris from decomposition and carbon dioxide release,” which would otherwise reach the atmosphere, Luo said. “So ...

Taking carbon out of the atmosphere is essential for slowing global warming—and a team of Cornell University researchers has ...

Rivers have long played a key role in the planet’s carbon cycle. They move and release gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), connecting land, air, and ocean systems.

Researchers found that burying the wood debris from managed forests over the next 76 years could remove between 770 and 937 ...

The baking soda or the sodium hydrogen carbonate decomposes release this carbon dioxide, which makes the muffins. Gethin: Yes, OK. So, what other examples are there of thermal decomposition?

Power plants and industrial facilities that emit planet-warming carbon dioxide are hopeful that Congress will keep tax ...

But then there is price. In climate terms, today’s carbon-dioxide level of 417 parts per million is alarming; in chemical-engineering terms, removing something that represents just 0.04%, or one ...

Moreover, it doesn’t do any good for a company to rely entirely on capturing carbon dioxide to fight climate change. Even at $100 a ton, it gets inordinately expensive to try to capture or ...

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 ...
