Throwing Chemicals Into The Air – Solution to Global Warming?
Certain bright minds say we should throw trillions of mirrors into space to slow global warming. It doesn't seem like a bad idea at a first glance, but other enlightened thoughts say we should release chemicals into the air to do just that.
Breakthrough Carbon Capture Using Ionic Liquids
Founded by scientists from the University of Colorado, ION Engineering has brought in sight a new technology that uses ionic liquids - nonvolatile molten salts - to capture carbon emissions.
Reducing Global Warming With a Huge Space-Mounted Mirror Shade
As scientists say nowadays that we are on a point of no return with global warming, they are also giving us solutions that could patch the problem and bring us to the pre-industrial climate.
Scientist Develops Way to Transform CO2 into Methane
Pennsylvania State University researchers found out a way to transform the messy CO2 from the atmosphere into burnable gas, with the help of the Sun. They made use of nanotechnology for this matter, and their results showed a 20 times yield, compared to other findings.
More Efficient Biomass Heater from Japanese Scientists
East Asian countries have an abundance of low efficiency, high carbon dioxide emitting heating sources. The Japanese scientists are working to develop new heating systems, with less harmful environmental impact.
Burying Waste Crops Into Deep Ocean Could Reduce Atmosphere CO2 by 15%
Low tech solutions are sometimes the best thing one can do to save the planet. For instance, a new carbon sequestration method arises through a newly published paper. The research says that this method can cut CO2 emissions by 15% per year. How is this done? Simply enough a 5th grader could understand.
Is Nitrogen a Climate Savior?
National Science Foundation proved after a long study that nitrogen added to soil can make forests absorb more dioxide carbon. But even if nitrogen is one of the most abundant element in the atmosphere, it's still a pollutant and can have a dramatic influence on the planet's environment.
Study: Spraying Water In The Air Reduces Global Warming
New patent to reduce global temperature: inventor Ron Acer said that spraying ocean water in the air around deserts, major arid areas or windy places near to water will cool down the Earth temperature.
Leeds University: Melting Icebergs Could Stop Global Warming
Lead researcher Professor Rob Raiswell, from Leeds University, said: "The Earth itself seems to want to save us". He discovered a shocking truth: melting icebergs can trigger a reaction that naturally sinks the CO2 out of the atmosphere and create an equilibrium by feedback to the global warming and CO2 emissions.
Everything We do Emits Heat – Bad in the Long Run, or Not?
I don't know what to believe anymore, sometimes. We seem to run of global warming, we reduce pollution and try to "green" ourselves through electric cars, solar cells and wind mills, yet scientists (as if all this global warming mess is all on their football field) say there will still be global warming due to the heat our machines, as a whole, emit in the ecosystem.
