Wind turbines often can produce more power than is needed for electricity onshore. That extra energy could be put to work capturing and storing carbon.
Klaus Lackner is finding new ways to cut the technology’s high costs and energy demand, and he’s about to launch the first ‘mechanical tree’.
Most carbon dioxide captured in the U.S. today is used to extract more oil. Two scholars point to another way: biological sequestration.
The audio version of an in-depth article on why there aren’t enough trees to offset society’s carbon emissions – and there never will be.
The Senate has disallowed a government regulation that would have allowed the ARENA to invest in technologies such as carbon capture and storage and “blue hydrogen” using fossil fuel.
Carbon has overshadowed forests in climate policies, leading to practices that appear green but actually harm forests.
A large-scale survey asked people exactly that. One use of recycled carbon dioxide stood out.
The Morrison government could have backed Australia’s clean energy sector to create jobs and stimulate the post-pandemic economy. Instead, it’s sending the nation on a fool’s errand.
Even if they can’t save us from climate change, society still depends on forests.
There was palpable relief as Biden brought the US back to the table on global climate action, warning “we have to get this done”. Depressingly, Morrison showed little sign of hearing the message.
Scott Morrison says he hopes to focus the conversation at this week’s Biden climate summit on the question of how to achieve net-zero emissions.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced next month’s budget will include a further $539.2 million government investment in new clean hydrogen and carbon capture, use and storage projects.
Energy Minister Angus Taylor is this week expected to release the government’s first Low Emissions Technology Statement. It’s likely to include ways to remove CO₂ from the air – but do they work?
An innovative method of carbon capture and storage could substantially reduce the emission of small industries while using geothermal energy to heat homes and thus replacing fossil-fuel energies.
A key tool for capturing and storing carbon may have been hiding in plain sight all along.
Carbon Engineering’s clever harnessing of high-school chemistry is just a small step on the path to negative emissions.
The Drax biomass plant in Yorkshire is the first in the world to pioneer carbon capture and some specialists see it as it has a bright future. But hold the rosy headlines.
These technologies could turn into a powerful tool for fighting global warming, and they have the potential to address historical climate injustices.
Delays on climate action to reduce emissions means that we may have to consider technologies that strip carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. But that will come at a cost.
