What if cropdusting could cool down the climate? What about rockdusting? Turns out sprinkling rock dust on fields may enhance a process called rock weathering, capable of trapping and removing ...

Israeli researchers are working to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by speeding up the natural weathering process by which rain dissolves rock. In nature, rain absorbs CO2 from the ...

A weird technology has emerged as a leader in the quest for net zero. But this form of carbon capture, called Enhanced Rock Weathering (or ERW for short), still requires innovation — and government ...

A report in the journal Nature has revealed that enhanced rock weathering (ERW) could help slow climate change by sucking carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This process involves spreading rock dust ...

Rocks, particularly the types created by volcanic activity, play a critical role in keeping Earth’s long-term climate stable and cycling carbon dioxide between land, oceans, and the atmosphere. In ...

A new study published in the journal Nature has overturned the view that natural rock weathering acts as a CO2 sink, indicating instead that this can also act as a large carbon dioxide source, ...

A study led by a Yale University researcher shows that farmers around the world could help the planet reach a key carbon removal goal set by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) by ...
