Mars Satellite Images Reveal Giant 'Kidney Beans,' Sparking Hints of Water and Life
NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured images of frozen sand dunes in Mars' northern hemisphere, revealing unique formations halted by carbon dioxide frost during winter. Unlike Earth's desert dunes, which shift with wind, these Martian dunes remain stationary until spring thaw releases their icy grip. Scientists study these features to unders...

Record Greenhouse Gas Levels In 2023 Signal Decades Of Warming: Report
The 2024 Greenhouse Gas Bulletin highlights that both industrial emissions and reduced forest absorption have accelerated this increase.

Forests Emit Carbon Dioxide for Years After Wildfires, Study Finds
A recent study has found that forests destroyed by wildfires continue to emit carbon dioxide (CO₂) for years after the flames die down. The research, conducted in Sweden’s boreal forests, revealed that burnt areas release CO₂ at a rate that more than doubles the amount emitted during the fire itself. These findings are particularly concerning...

Researchers Use Carbon-Air Battery in Breakthrough for Next-Generation Storage Systems
Researchers at a Japanese institute say they have found a way to make renewable energy more efficient. It is called “carbon/air secondary battery (CASB)” and comprises a solid-oxide fuel and electrolysis cell (SOFC/ECs) where carbon generated via electrolysis of carbon dioxide (CO2) is oxidised with air to produce energy

Comet Impact Led To Ancient Global Warming Event: Study
A comet strike may have triggered the rapid warming of Earth caused by an accumulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide 56 million years ago, which offers analogs to global warming today, researchers have found.

New greenhouse gas has higher global warming impact than Carbon dioxide
Scientists have discovered a long-lived man-made greenhouse gas that appears to have the highest global-warming impact of any compound to date.
