Germany should stop using coal for electricity production by 2038, a government-appointed commission said Saturday, laying out an 80-billion euro roadmap to phase out the polluting fuel.
A recent study has developed a system that produces electricity and hydrogen while eliminating carbon dioxide. This system has shown stability by operating for more than 1,000 hours without damage to electrodes.
Bristol has certainly pioneered a name for itself as a center for all things green. Now Bristol's city council has declared a climate emergency and promised to target complete carbon neutrality for the city by 2030.
A new report suggests that net zero emissions is achievable by mid-century, even in the hardest-to-reform sectors of the economy such as shipping, freight transport, cement manufacturing, plastics and aviation.
Make every building Passivhaus, need less, keep it simple, buy less, electrify everything. But ultimately we have to collectively change our thinking and lifestyle.
Swiss company has announced the opening of a new plant in Italy that will collect carbon dioxide from the air and pair it with hydrogen to make methane fuel that would add little or no CO2 to the atmosphere.
Canadian researchers have developed an accelerated way to produce magnesite at room temperature - a mineral which can capture the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.
Overall emissions caused by deforestation in the Amazon rainforest were down by 610 million tonnes of carbon dioxide. This is ahead of its 2020 target of 564 million tonnes.
Canadian company Carbon Engineering has developed new technology that is capable of capturing carbon at a cost of less than $100 per ton, then turning that carbon into a synthetic fuel.
A company called NET Power has begun testing a unique demonstration power plant in Texas, US that burns natural gas but releases no emissions into the atmosphere.
The 100 percent electric, zero-emission E-ferry, called Ellen, could allow for green ferry travel starting in Denmark. E-ferry is funded by the European Union.
These gains would come primarily from avoiding rising health care costs, productivity losses, and declining agricultural output, according to the authors.
Nine cities in Africa — Accra, Dar es Salaam, Addis Ababa, Lagos, Dakar, Durban, Tshwane, Johannesburg, and Cape Town — aim to reach zero carbon by 2050.
University of Toronto engineering team designs most efficient and stable process for converting climate-warming carbon dioxide into a key chemical building block.
An inexpensive method follows nature’s lead in our use of a water-based membrane that incorporates natural enzymes to capture 90 percent of carbon dioxide released.
