California Group Exploring Viability of a Community-Centered Direct Air Capture Hub
Researchers from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the Center for Law, Energy, and the Environment (CLEE) at the UC Berkeley School of Law are leading a project to explore the creation of a Direct Air Capture (DAC) facility that uses cutting-edge technologies to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in California’s Southern San Joaquin Valley (SSJV).
Rising Seas Will Devastate Coastal Habitats
Research published today in Nature warns that rising seas will devastate coastal habitats.
World’s Coastal Wetlands and Coral Reef Islands Face Urgent Sea Level Threat, New Study Shows
Coastal wetlands and coral reef islands will struggle to grow fast enough to keep pace with rising sea levels driven by climate change, according to a new study published in Nature.
Tiny, Shape-Shifting Robot Can Squish Itself Into Tight Spaces
Coming to a tight spot near you: CLARI, the little, squishable robot that can passively change its shape to squeeze through narrow gaps—with a bit of inspiration from the world of bugs.
Long Time Lag in Heavily Polluted Regions as Improvement in Air Quality Warms Climate
In a recent study, scientists at Leipzig University have revised previous assumptions about the influence of pollutant particles, known as aerosols, on global warming.
