The technology to capture and bury carbon dioxide has struggled to ramp up and has real limits. But experts say it could play a valuable role. By Brad Plumer and Nadja Popovich World leaders at ...

Yale selected one of the four approaches — a revenue-neutral scheme — for the new carbon charge. It works this way: If a building reduces its carbon emissions more than Yale as a whole does, compared ...

Laboratory tests showed that each gram of the material absorbs around 26 milligrams of carbon dioxide over a period of 400 days. As a practical demonstration, the team has also created an exhibit ...

The solar-powered device can make valuable energy-dense molecules from carbon dioxide and water. For many years, researchers have been working to build devices that can mimic photosynthesis—the ...

Six months ago, the prospects for the nascent carbon removal market seemed as vast as the sky. Bill Gates and other investors were lining up to fund start-ups that promised to suck carbon dioxide ...

Carbon is neither very electronegative nor electropositive, which means it neither steals nor throws off electrons when left to its own devices. Its geometry lets it form crystals, and its charge ...

The nascent carbon dioxide removal industry expects to hit a milestone this year: 1 million tonnes of planet-warming CO2 removed from the atmosphere. That certainly is progress, but things aren ...
