IntroductionCarbon sequestration is one of the major strategies for removing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and fixing it in the soil and plants.MethodsThis study focused on the carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas dynamics of three different forage sorghum cultivars: Sugar Graze Ultra (annual), PSH20TX01 (perennial seeded), and PSH09TX15 (perennial rhizomes), in Southern Texas, USA, where e…

Converting tequila bagasse into biochar and revalorizing vinasse as a soil amendment offers a circular-economy pathway, yet the combined effect of these materials on soil carbon dynamics remains poorly understood. This study evaluated the impact of agave-bagasse biochar, tequila vinasse, and soil additives (compost, inorganic fertilizer) on soil CO₂ mineralization kinetics in a 30-day laboratory …

Yara International ASA (Oslo, Norway) has announced that Europe’s largest industrial carbon capture facility was officially inaugurated at Yara’s plant in Sluiskil, the Netherlands. The project establishes the first complete cross-border value chain for capturing, transporting, and permanently storing CO₂ (CCS). The inauguration was marked by the presence of Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr St…

Europe just opened a carbon capture and storage plant billed as the continent's largest. But global climate scenarios call for far more capacity than exists anywhere on Earth.

Our study began as a model-based assessment of chemical production routes. It became a story about carbon accounting: the rules that decide who pays for fossil carbon in plastics, and who doesn't.

Emissions Reduction Alberta is funding four rural projects with $20 million on 31 August 2026, covering carbon capture, hydrogen transport and land cleanup. <p>The post Alberta invests $20 million in carbon capture, hydrogen and land reclamation projects first appeared on Winssolutions .</p>

Read the Institute’s latest facility profile featuring the Huaneng Longdong Energy Base CCS facility. Located in Gansu Province, China, the project is the world’s largest post‑combustion CO₂ capture facility on a coal‑fired power station. Coal-fired power remains a cornerstone of China’s electricity system and is one of the largest single sources of CO₂ emissions. Decarbonising […] The post CCS F…

Global temperatures are poised to breach the limit set by the Paris Agreement, and large-scale carbon dioxide removal will be needed, according to the U.N.

Global warming will exceed 1.5°C (2.7°F), likely within the next few years, according to a United Nations Environment Programme Report. Credit: NASA/JSC , Public Domain

UNEP's Limiting Overshoot report, published 2 September 2026, puts best-case peak warming at 1.8C and says a return to 1.5C needs far more carbon removal. <p>The post UNEP accepts the world will overshoot 1.5°C and sets out what a return would take first appeared on Winssolutions .</p>

Nature Communications, Published online: 02 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41467-026-77462-8 This study shows that stronger maximum CO2 uptake and a longer carbon uptake period strengthen the terrestrial carbon sink but increasing maximum CO2 release offsets 44% of this gain, highlighting an important constraint on its future strength.

Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed an experimental device that removes dissolved carbon dioxide from seawater while cleaning away the mineral deposits that form inside it. The technology could eventually help reduce ocean acidity and provide captured carbon for products such as concrete and jet fuel. The process is described in the journal […] The post Self-Cleaning Device c…

Where saltwater meets the shore, mangrove forests rise on stilted roots, plunging into murky tidal zones. Their dense, tangled networks filter waves and shelter wildlife in a landscape that shifts between land and sea. Beneath the surface, these coastal ecosystems perform a quieter feat.  Understanding how carbon storage works in mangroves reveals rates that rival […] The post Blue Carbon Champio…

Sustainable IT is no longer just an environmental objective. At Capgemini, it has become a catalyst for modernization, helping reduce IT-related carbon emissions by 45% since 2021 while improving efficiency, simplifying technology landscapes, and supporting our Net Zero ambitions.

Taiwan's carbon fee has been formally included in the UK government's list of Qualifying Carbon Pricing Schemes (QCPS) under its Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), alongside major carbon pricing systems in the EU, Japan, South Korea and Singapore. The Ministry of Environment said the move shows Taiwan's carbon pricing framework is now aligned with international systems and will help expor…

Ambrian Energy GmbH (Bremen, Germany) and Messer SE & Co. KGaA (Bad Soden, Germany) announce that the planned joint venture “CarbonBridge” has successfully received antitrust approval from the European Commission. This milestone paves the way for the development of the terminal of the same name — Germany’s first operational CO₂ export terminal. The CarbonBridge export […] The post Germany’s first…

Editor’s Note: This project is sponsored by the Department of the Navy, Office of Naval Research under ONR Award Number N000142512239. What if the exhaust from a jet plane was not just pollution, but rather a source of its next tank of fuel?  While it may sound like science fiction, converting carbon dioxide (CO₂) into […] The post How one UT San Antonio researcher is working to make fuel out of …
