The bacteria that can capture carbon
Could minuscule organisms help the world meet its climate goals?
With global greenhouse gas emissions reaching an all-time high last year, many scientists and world leaders are now arguing that new technologies which can capture carbon and store it underground are needed to help the world meet its climate goals...
Cyanobacteria and Bacteria Champions in CO2 Sequestration. From Vulcano to the Rocky Mountains
Bacteria can be great allies in the fight against climate change. A team of researchers has discovered a cyanobacterium that can feed on CO2 at a much higher rate than others...
Could a volcanic microbe steward the future of carbon capture on Earth and in space?
Could a volcanic microbe steward the future of carbon capture on Earth and in space? Humanity’s two greatest frontiers—oceans and space—have much in common; one of their similarities being carbon dioxide (CO₂)...
Unveiling Chonkus: The Algae That Sinks Carbon to Save Our Planet
An international research team has discovered a new cyanobacteria strain, “Chonkus,” that excels in carbon sequestration and could revolutionize biomanufacturing...
Vulcano Island, New CO2-Eating Bacteria Discovered. "They're Very Fast"
A group of researchers from the international project Two Frontiers have found photosynthetic organisms capable of absorbing carbon dioxide at a faster rate than other known bacteria. The idea of using them to capture greenhouse gases...
Vulcano's CO2-fighting bacteria
CO2-eating bacteria have been discovered on the island of Vulcano, part of the Aeolian Islands Archipelago. It is not the first time that these islands have given us unique things...
