For over 130 years, aluminum has been produced in the same dirty, greenhouse gas-releasing way. Now Apple is investing $10 million in a carbon-free aluminum smelting process.
A team of researchers, using Europe’s Very Large Telescope in Chile, has found an exoplanet, WASP-96b, with a cloud-free atmosphere, allowing them to detect sodium in levels similar to abundances on Earth.
The Chandra Observatory has found direct evidence for up to 10 stellar-mass black holes and thousands more lurking within a few light years of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
A new study presents the first physical evidence that the Venus’ and Jupiter’s gravity can cause shifts in Earth’s orbit—and swings in its climate—every 405,000 years.
A new study by researchers at Trinity College Dublin explains for the first time the neurophysiological link between breathing and attention.
As April drew to a close, scientists confirmed that sea ice in the Bering Sea was at 10 percent of normal levels. This causes 'natural disaster' for Alaskan communities.
Starting in 2020, all new homes in California will be required to incorporate advanced efficiency measures and rooftop solar — in an historic development for clean energy in the state.
The company aims to conduct test flights of its air taxi in 2020 in Dallas or Los Angeles, with commercial service to begin as soon as 2023.
By draping black, carbon-dipped paper in a triangular shape and using it to both absorb and vaporize water, researchers have developed a method for using sunlight to generate clean water with near-perfect efficiency.
Researchers have developed a new platform that makes CRISPR less like a cutting tool and more like a word processor with a search-and-replace function.
The global comprehensive tourism footprint is about four times greater than previous estimates, is growing faster than international trade and is already responsible for almost a tenth of global greenhouse emissions.
The three supercomputer clusters are located at the University of Edinburgh, the University of Bristol and the University of Leicester, and will run more than 12,000 Arm-based cores.
The renewable energy industry created more than 500,000 new jobs globally in 2017, a 5.3 per cent increase from 2016, according to the latest figures released by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
Fourth industrial revolution driven by robots is shaping urban spaces and urban life in response to opportunities and challenges in economic, social, political and healthcare domains.
UK Researchers have created graphene-infused concrete that is twice as strong but has far lower carbon emissions than ordinary concrete.
