Learn how the carbon cycle works and how greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane disrupt it, shaping climate change ...

As global temperatures continue to rise, scientists are working to understand how warming affects the planet’s carbon cycle.

The Lomagundi-Jatuli event, which occurred more than two billion years ago, followed the Great Oxygenation Event and was ...

A new method to convert waste plastic to fuel and raw materials promises to help close the carbon cycle at mild temperature and with high yield. There's a lot of potentially useful raw materials bound ...

This is the fourth article in a series about the mechanics of the natural carbon cycle. Please also see the overview article — Nature-Enhancing Solutions are the Key to Solving the Climate Crisis — ...

Plankton play a central role in a climate process that scientists now say may behave more aggressively than once thought. As ...

Reaching net-zero carbon emissions goals requires finding transformative paths to manage carbon in difficult-to-electrify economic sectors. A major approach to achieving net-zero carbon emissions ...

The idea of animating the carbon cycle (ACC) is relatively new. The concept champions the role that healthy populations of wild animals, both terrestrial and marine, can play in boosting the ability ...

This image shows a comparison between the synthetic biology–engineered plant (right) and the wild-type plant. Dr. Liao’s team has developed a novel “McG plant” with a mechanism that recycles the ...
