A research team has successfully developed a technology that efficiently converts carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon monoxide (CO), an industrial raw material, by precisely controlling the interaction ...

Specifically, the annual Global Carbon Budget projects fossil CO2 emissions of more than 36.8 billion metric tons in 2023, which is a rise of 1.1% from 2022. “We are clearly not going in the ...

Carbon capture and storage technology has emerged as a central issue among U.N. COP28 climate negotiators considering a phaseout of fossil fuels.

Burying carbon emissions underground is one more way to avoid doing what we must to slow climate change: End fossil fuel use. Carbon capture is an excuse to burn more fossil fuels - Los Angeles Times ...

Decomposing plants and other organisms, buried beneath layers of sediment and rock, have taken millennia to become the carbon-rich deposits we now call fossil fuels. These non-renewable fuels ...

In China, carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are projected to grow 4 percent in 2023 compared with 2022. In India, they are projected to grow 8.2 percent.

When we burn fossil fuels like coal, we’re actually burning very ancient organic material — stuff that has lost all its carbon-14 over the course of millennia.

Carbon capture technology has long been the industry’s favored solution. But Big Oil’s investment in it has been slow and largely aimed at helping produce more fossil fuels.

But changes in modern human activity, such as the end of above-ground atomic testing and a rise in carbon-dioxide emissions from fossil fuels, mean carbon dating is being rendered useless (see chart).

Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are on track to reach a record 37.4 billion metric tons in 2024, a 0.8 percent increase over 2023 levels, according to new data from the Global ...
