ENVIRONMENT & CLIMATEUsing advanced mapping techniques and predictive population models, a new study demonstrates how burrowing wild pigs actually release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than a million cars each year.
Science and health news agencies recently reported a field test of experimental African houses has proven that when carbon dioxide flows out, mosquitoes stay out, as well.
A pioneering study recently found that marine ecosystems can begin functioning again, providing vital roles for humans, after being wiped out much sooner compared to their return to peak biodiversity.
One of the challenges in curbing the worsening effects of climate change is in reducing our continuous carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions - and a new technology promises a green and sustainable solution in doing so.
Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have reached another alarming milestone as it reaches 50% higher compared to the beginning of industrial revolution when the burning of fossil fuels was a thing.
MOXIE's main objective is to show how explorers could produce oxygen in the Martian atmosphere and make it breathable. The process will include the breaking down Mars' carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide and oxygen.
A food-tech startup in upstate New York developed a new pasteurization technology that preserves perishable food without refrigeration and using artificial preservatives to cut down millions of tons of food waste worldwide.
A new analysis showed that an area of forests the size of France had regrown naturally since 2000. That means it could store up to 5.9 gigatons of carbon emissions.
Researchers recently discovered carbon-rich water in what's described as an ancient meteorite, playing a vital role in the solar system's early evolution and formation.
NASA has calculated the distinct evidence that shows how humans are causing climate change. Specifically, it has calculated the specific driving forces of recent climate change through direct satellite observations.
A new study based on 23 years of lake data near Rankin Inlet in Nunavut, Canada, reveals an unusual behavior on how these lakes respond to climate change.
Researchers study the impacts of acidic water on octopuses, possibly bringing new understanding into how activities affect the world and how the world itself is adjusting in response.
A team of researchers from the University of Oxford converted carbon dioxide into carbon-neutral jet fuel. They are confident that this innovation will have a positive impact on sustainable aviation fuel.
Carbon spheres - small spherical structures that have found large applications in carbon capture and energy storage - can now be created faster and more sustainably in a novel technique developed by researchers.
Oxford University researchers have re-engineered jet fuel from greenhouse gas. Over time, the introduction of hybrid vehicles and tighter pollution regulations resulted in the growing environmental impact of land-based automobiles.
As you prepare to put on a new tree, you might want to consider one with a low carbon footprint. We're only a few days away from Christmas. While families already have their homes adorned with Christmas decors, they may still opt to have theirs decorated during the Christmas week.
