A new copper-magnesium-iron catalyst transforms CO2 into CO at low temperatures with record-breaking efficiency and stability. The discovery paves the way for affordable, scalable production of carbon ...

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) levels in the atmosphere soared by a record amount to new highs in 2024, committing the planet to more long-term temperature increase, according to a new report from the World ...

Surging emissions from wildfires may have been behind the increase, which was the largest since modern measurements began more than half a century ago. By Raymond Zhong and Sachi Kitajima Mulkey The ...

Greenhouse gas concentrations increased by a record amount in 2024 as more carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide became locked in Earth's atmosphere, a World Meteorological Organization report ...

The closest technological species to us in the Milky Way galaxy could be 33,000 light years away and their civilization would have to be at least 280,000 years, and possibly millions of years, old if ...

Carbon dioxide doesn't normally get a good rap in terms of eco-friendly energy production. But a new partnership forged by Google will see the greenhouse gas used inside a giant battery to manage and ...

Scientists have developed a material with photosynthetic bacteria that convert carbon dioxide into a mineral skeleton. The material hardens over time, so it could be used for buildings, they say. When ...

Earth’s atmosphere now has more carbon dioxide in it than it has in millions — and possibly tens of millions — of years, according to data released Thursday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric ...

For the first time, the seasonal peak of carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere exceeded 430 parts per million (ppm) at NOAA’s Mauna Loa Observatory on Hawaii, scientists from NOAA and ...

This volleyball-looking device is one of the glass flasks that Charles D. Keeling and others used to transport samples of atmosphere from Mauna Loa and beyond to a laboratory for precise analysis.

CO2 is a natural part of the planet, but too much has tipped the climate scales. Carbon dioxide may be a naturally occurring substance on Earth, but too much of its presence has contributed to global ...
