Stanford researchers outline vision for a profitable approach to cleaning the air

A new study analyzed the current state of World Heritage glaciers, their recent evolution, and their projected mass change over the 21st century

A new ISO standard will help companies valuate and manage the impact of their environmental damage

Chinese regulations on coal mining have not curbed the nation's growing methane emissions over the past five years

In the case of one type of pollution—tiny particles that can damage people’s lungs—particle-forming emissions from chemical products are about twice as high as those from the transportation sector

A study by Indiana University researchers shows that excess emissions—which occur with plant shut-downs, start-ups, and malfunctions—can make serious contributions to overall air pollution

MIT-developed method converts carbon dioxide into useful compounds

Research team focused on copper-exchanged zeolites, a particular class of catalysts used to promote the conversion of NO_x into environmentally benign nitrogen gas

"Most food waste comes from consumers, but the amount lost in the logistics systems comes in a close second," researcher says

The researchers propose using a “bioenergy-biochar system” that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in an environmental pinch, until other removal methods become economically feasible and in regions where other methods are impractical
