Cyanobacteria are natures little alchemists Braden Tierney Tierney says the findings from Vulcano are expanding our view of billions of years of evolution. Because of microbes ability to adapt to different environmental conditions and planetary changes he feels confident that in those evolutionary processes lie address climate change. CARBON COUNT The emissions from travel it took to report this story were kg CO. The digital emissions from this story are an estimated .
g to .g CO per page view. Find out more about how we calculated this figure here. Scientists say that tackling climate change will require largescale carbon capture which could potentially be achieved via n Mobile App Development Service ew technology or through protecting and enhancing existing natural ecosystems such as forests peatlands and soils. Last year the UNs Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
IPCC said that carbon capture is essential because even big cuts to emissions wont be enough to limit global warming. Although some scientists warn that it could provide governments and industry with an unwarranted excuse to avoid the stringent emissions cuts that are needed to tackle climate change. Tierney says microbial solutions should be harnessed to work in concert with other technologies and natural systems to suck CO out of the atmosphere. |
