A new metal-organic framework could help reduce carbon emissions produced by the petrochemical industry

A newly developed metal-organic framework (MOF) could help reduce the amount of carbon emissions produced by the petrochemical industry, according to a study published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials. One of the most important challenges in the chemical and petrochemical industries is segregating molecules in an energy-efficient method. In fact, the separation processes make […]

Reusing CO2: Scientists are closer to converting it to clean energy

Nature emits carbon dioxide (CO2) as part of many different natural processes. Plants are known to take them in as a necessary ingredient in photosynthesis, and it benefits the Earth in a lot of different ways, such as accelerating plant growth and food production. Although the planet’s CO2 levels are currently near record lows throughout […]

Scientists develop clean fuel using CO2, proving again how essential carbon dioxide is to human life

Researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory say they have made a breakthrough in clean energy in relation to the process of converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuel using photosynthesis. In their experiment, published in the Energy and Environmental Science journal, the U.S. Department of Energy scientists at the Berkeley lab were for the first time […]

Deforestation impacts climate change more than fossil fuel use, new study finds

Curbing the use of fossil fuels is often singled out as the best way to tackle climate change, but a new study published in the journal Environmental Research Letters shows that the problem of deforestation should not be overlooked as it contributes far more to climate change than once believed. The new paper, which is […]

Reef fish found to be surprisingly resilient to ocean acidification caused by carbon dioxide (climate change)

Ocean acidification is a phenomenon that has been associated with increased dangers for species of fish, such as leaving them unable to flee from predators and enemies. This chemical reaction is the product of boosted carbon dioxide uptake from the atmosphere and results in seawater undergoing fundamental changes to its chemistry. However, a team of researchers […]

Physics breakthrough can use sunlight to directly transform CO2 into clean fuels like methane, without using fossil fuels

Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in collaboration with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, have found a way to keep on using carbon-based fuel technologies without producing too much of the atmospheric greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) by doing away with fossil fuels. In the study that was published in the Journal of […]

Progressives STUNNED to learn that all medicinal nutrients in herbs and plants are made out of carbon dioxide

Plants play a vital role in making the Earth a habitable, and healthy place. Plants provide food, clean air, clothing, and medicine. Unfortunately, left-wing “environmentalist” and pseudoscientists are on a mission to destroy it all. Plants are natural air purifiers, providing the clean air all animals, humans included, need for their survival. As it turns […]

ALL HEALING NUTRIENTS found in cannabis are made from carbon dioxide, the “miracle molecule” for plant life across our planet

When you hear celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio declare war on carbon dioxide, it’s hard not to roll your eyes and think “Smoke another one, Leo.” Of course, that wouldn’t really be possible if we somehow did manage to get rid of all the carbon dioxide on Earth. That’s because this life-giving molecule is essential to […]

Carbon Dioxide revealed as the “Miracle Molecule of Life” for re-greening the planet

The “War on Carbon” is rooted in the most outrageously dangerous, dishonest and degenerate anti-science bunk that’s ever been shoveled into the minds of the masses. Far from being a “pollutant,” carbon dioxide is the “Miracle Molecule of Life” for re-greening the planet through reforestation. This essential molecule supports the entire web of life on […]
