The Frozen Ground Under Threat Permafrost is like Earth's ancient freezer, stretching over vast regions, mainly near the North and South Poles. It holds soil, rocks, and sub-zero water, remaining frozen for two years or more.
Engineers create an efficient system to capture carbon dioxide directly from the air, advancing climate solutions.
Companies looking to build carbon capture pipelines are utilizing the power of eminent domain when property owners won't willingly negotiate easements. In at least some cases, rather than go through the expense of litigating,

Materials such as concrete containing carbonate-based aggregates, bio-based plastics and biochar could sequester more than 16 billion tonnes of CO2 a year
Cornell researchers have discovered a way for ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA), one of the most abundant types of microorganisms on Earth, to produce nitrous oxide, a potent and long-lasting greenhouse gas.
The change measured by the Mauna Loa Observatory was likely driven by wildfires and continued burning of fossil fuels, scientists say
Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing at rates that are incompatible with staying below 1.5 degrees Celsius (34.7 degrees Fahrenheit) of global warming, a Met Office study warns.
At a Senate committee hearing on Wednesday, Donald Trump’s nominee to run the Environmental Protection Agency, Lee Zeldin, acknowledged climate change is “real” and that greenhouse gasses are making the planet hotter—but stopped short of saying the agency must regulate them.
When President Joe Biden took office in January 2021, one of his main goals had been to rein in carbon-dioxide (CO₂) emissions in order to curb climate change.
Thailand's cabinet on Tuesday agreed to levy a carbon tax of 200 baht ($5.88) per ton of carbon emissions, a deputy finance minister said, as part of the country's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Directly measuring soil carbon rather than relying on predictive models can provide hard evidence of how much carbon is being stored, allowing for better assessments of confidence in carbon markets for croplands,
