Researchers from the University of Cambridge, UK, have discovered a new type of wood that could enhance carbon sequestration efforts.
New carbon storage technology is fastest of its kind

Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin, USA, have developed a faster, chemical-free method for carbon capture using carbon dioxide hydrates, promising significant advances in global carbon storage efforts.
‘Planting’ rocks in farms could help remove carbon from atmosphere

From American Geophysical Union 17/08/23 Farmers around the world could help the planet reach a key carbon removal goal set by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) by mixing crushed volcanic rocks into their fields, a new study reports. The study also highlights wet, warm tropics as the most promising locations for this climate […]
NASA space laser probes structure of rainforest canopy for biodiversity/carbon storage

From NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY 19/07/23 We know less about the rainforest canopy, where most of the world’s species live than we do about the surface of Mars or the bottom of the ocean. However, that is about to change thanks to GEDI—a NASA space laser that has provided a detailed structure of the world’s rainforests […]
