A new metric accounting for future climate-related deaths could greatly multiply the “social cost of carbon.” A just-published study coins a new metric: the “mortality…
New Berkeley Lab study reviews progress towards a carbon-free power sector. Concerns about climate change are driving a growing number of states, utilities, and corporations…
For the first time, an EPFL-led team of scientists has measured the total amount of CO2 emissions from mountain streams worldwide. This research builds on…
By adding bits of irradiated plastic water bottles to concrete, MIT engineers take plastic out of landfills and lower the cement industry’s carbon emissions. Discarded…
Europe’s carbon-trading market and tougher emission targets make it appear somewhat more responsible than the rest of the world at climate-policy negotiations. But recently, the…
The state of Washington, the leading US producer of farmed shellfish, announced that it is launching a 42-step plan to reduce ocean acidification. The initiative…
A recently published paper from Stanford scientists suggests that carbon sequestration is likely to create pressure build-up large enough cause intraplate earthquakes, breaking the reservoirs’…
Researchers from SLAC and Stanford have teamed with scientists at the Max Planck Institute to examine catalysts in an effort to find an efficient way…
To better understand climate change and global warming, researchers realize that they must address carbon emissions. A new study suggests using deep saline aquifers that…
Researchers at the University of Leeds, in collaboration with the University of York, published a new study showing the extent of the Northern Hemisphere’s intercontinental…
