When soda companies add carbon dioxide gas to a soda mixture, the water is very cold so it can hold a lot of gas. They also use pressure to put more gas in the water than it could normally hold at ...

The results of Foote’s simple experiments were confirmed through hundreds of tests by scientists in the US and Europe. It ...

Scientists have developed a new "artificial leaf" that removes CO2 from the air and turns it into sustainable fuel.

to "we must"—recognizing the urgency of the situation. So it's worth coming up to speed on the basics of carbon dioxide removal technology, both old and new, and the role we can expect it to ...
