NOAA research shows it would take the average tree more than 1500 years to sequester the amount of carbon dioxide a whale can ...

The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has continued to accelerate, increasing by a record amount last year. Trees, plants and tiny plankton in the ocean all convert CO2 into the oxygen we ...

Tropical coastal forests known as mangroves are known for being the first “buffer zones” in coastal systems. New research ...

Kiel. When bottom trawls are dragged across the seafloor, they stir up sediments. This not only releases previously stored organic carbon, but also intensifies the oxidation of pyrite, a mineral ...

As the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continues to accelerate, trees, plants and even the ocean’s tiny plankton ...

Utilizing technology that offers the potential for natural gas plants to capture an additional 150,000 metric tons of CO2 ...

Rice already contains arsenic, a naturally occurring toxin. But climate change is supercharging the danger with hotter, ...

In the soils of Earth's wetlands, microbes are in a tug-of-war to produce and consume the powerful greenhouse gas methane. But if the Earth gets too hot, it could tip the scale in favor of the methane ...

A horticultural expert claims that having house plants can also help you to live longer, as well as helping you to get a ...

ESA/Hubble In a first for astronomers surveying the depths of space, carbon dioxide has been detected on an exoplanet – that is, a planet lying outside our solar system. Thanks to the coronagraph ...

Researchers warn of possible increase of toxic arsenic in rice resulting from increasing temperature and carbon dioxide.
