In a spectacular new study, researchers have used light and chlorine to eradicate low-concentration methane from air. The result gets us closer to being able to remove greenhouse gases from livestock ...
Methane makes up 99.5% of the combustible ice, making it a vital reserve energy source. The reserves of combustible ice in the South China Sea are estimated to be at least 80 billion tons of oil ...
The study by Maarten van Herpen et al., entitled “Photocatalytic Chlorine Atom Production on Mineral Dust-Sea Spray Aerosols over North Atlantic,” was funded in part by the NGO Spark Climate Solutions ...
Scientists have unveiled a breakthrough way to turn natural gas—long burned as fuel—into valuable chemical building blocks ...
Methane is the second biggest greenhouse gas contributor to climate change. It’s also 84 times more potent than culprit number one, carbon dioxide. Unsurprisingly, 60% of global emissions result from ...
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine this week looked at the possibilities of removing methane emissions directly from the air. Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is ...
CLIMATEWIRE | Removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is essential to meeting international climate goals, scientists say. Without it, it’s all but impossible to reach net-zero greenhouse gas ...
The intervention may break down methane, mimicking a phenomenon that could have amplified ice ages. But scientists say far more basic research still needs to be done. Within the next 18 months, a Palo ...
Observational data suggest models are likely underestimating the amount of methane lost through atmospheric chemistry ...
