Scientists created Carbon-eating Polymers
A team of chemists has discovered how to transform PET plastic waste into BAETA, a material that captures CO2 with remarkable efficiency. Instead of ending…
Invisible Chemical Clouds are being released into Water by Microplastics
Microplastics in rivers, lakes, and oceans aren’t just drifting debris—they’re constantly leaking invisible clouds of chemicals into the water. New research shows that sunlight drives…
Researchers discovered a Risky Feedback Loop that is speeding up Arctic Warming
The Arctic is changing rapidly, and scientists have uncovered a powerful mix of natural and human-driven processes fueling that change. Cracks in sea ice release…
Global Warming may cause the next Ice Age
Researchers at UC Riverside say they have identified a critical gap in how scientists have long understood Earth’s carbon recycling system. By filling in this…
Hidden Heat beneath Greenland may affect Sea Level estimates
Scientists have built the most detailed 3D models yet of temperatures deep beneath Greenland. The results reveal uneven heat hidden below the ice, shaped by…
The Stunning reason Arctic Rivers become Reddish Orange
Researchers found that ice can trigger stronger chemical reactions than liquid water, dissolving iron minerals in extreme cold. Freeze-thaw cycles amplify the effect, releasing iron…
Scientists identify the Ingredients for finding Naturally Clean Hydrogen
Researchers at the University of Oxford, Durham University and the University of Toronto have detailed the geological ingredients required to find clean sources of natural…
Recycling EV Batteries is essential for Future Lithium Supplies
Lightweight, powerful lithium-ion batteries are crucial for the transition to electric vehicles, and global demand for lithium is set to grow rapidly over the next…
Coastal Flooding Occurs more frequently than previously believed
Flooding in coastal communities is happening far more often than previously thought, according to a new study from North Carolina State University and the University…
Inexpensive and Simple potential approach for Reducing Carbon Emissions in Maritime Shipping
Adopting new digital systems to help oceangoing container ships get in line to offload their cargo at busy ports appears to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG)…
Climate Change Threatens Thousands of Animal Species
A novel analysis suggests more than 3,500 animal species are threatened by climate change and also sheds light on huge gaps in fully understanding the…
