As political winds shift in the U.S. and big corporations pull back on their climate ambition, investors, too, are giving the cold shoulder to a nascent technology that will be vital to tackling climate change. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/05/02/tech/investors-sour-direct-air-capture/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #tech #climatechange #investments #carbon #emissions
A new report has found that protected areas and Indigenous territories in the Amazon store more aboveground carbon than the rest of the rainforest.
Protected areas and Indigenous territories were also found to serve as significant carbon sinks between 2013 and 2022, absorbing 257 million metric tons of carbon dioxide.

#XPRIZE makes history, awards $100M prize for groundbreaking #carbon removal
#MatiCarbon developed sequestration technique called enhanced rock weatherin. The company spreads crushed basalt on farms in India and Africa. Silica-rich volcanic rock improves soil quality for crops but also helps remove #carbondioxide from air. It does this by reacting with dissolved #CO2 in soil's water, turning it into bicarbonate ions and preventing it from returning to the atmosphere.

New study claims to have calculated the individual contributions to the climate crisis by major corporations. And they estimate that damage to be $28 trillion from 1990-2020

The Sixth Element How Carbon Shapes Our World by Theodore P. Snow & Don Brownlee, 2024
The story of carbon from a cosmic perspective—how it was born in the fiery furnaces of stars, what special chemical and physical properties it has, and how it forms the chemical backbone of the planets and all life as we know it.
Carbon: The Book of Life by Paul Hawken, 2025
Carbon is the only element that animates the entirety of the living world. Though comprising a tiny fraction of Earth’s composition, our planet is lifeless without it. Yet it is maligned as the driver of climate change, scorned as an errant element blamed for the possible demise of civilization.

'Cryosphere meltdown' will impact Arctic marine carbon cycles and ecosystems, new study warns
A new study led by Jochen Knies from the iC3 Polar Research Hub has found worrying signs that climate change may be undermining the capacity of #Arctic #fjords to serve as effective #carbon sinks. The findings suggest that the capacity of polar #oceans to remove carbon from the #atmosphere may be reduced as the world continues to heat up.
Knies and his collaborators discovered that rapid changes in the Arctic are transforming vibrant fjord ecosystems like Kongsfjorden in #Svalbard. Published in Communications Earth & Environment, their findings document not only a shift in phytoplankton communities due to melting ice but also a worrying decline in the capacity of these fjords to sequester carbon.
Warmer waters can enhance #phytoplankton growth during sunlit summers, presenting an initial opportunity for increased productivity. However, as the waters become stratified, essential nutrients become harder to access, leading to a double-edged sword: while we may see a rise in phytoplankton #biomass, the efficiency of CarbonCapture could decline.

#AWS finally updated their #carbon footprint tool with a bit more information. It now has per region data (rather than per geo) and higher resolution, down to 1 gram in the data download. It has a new allocation model that spreads the unused capacity and overhead in a cloud region over the customer carbon footprints. Still puts everything into EC2, S3 and “other”, which makes it hard to find the main sources of #emissions by service. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsaccountbilling/latest/aboutv2/what-is-ccft.html
If the so called Labour government cannot arrange a sane BBC, if it indeed is itself sane enough to understand how raging mad this is, then there is no point in Labour and rhe British working class needs to look at different solutions.
BBC Prevents shows talking about effing heat pumps.
Fire the BBC news dept. In its entirety. All of it. From copy editors to talking nobs.
