Last Updated: Friday, June 21, 2013, 15:30

Universite Laval researchers have developed a highly effective method for converting CO2 into methanol, which can be used as a low-emissions fuel for vehicles.

Engineered bacteria use hydrogen, CO2 to produce electricity

Last Updated: Monday, May 20, 2013, 15:29

Researchers including one of Indian origin have engineered a strain of electricity-producing bacteria that can grow using hydrogen gas as its sole electron donor and carbon dioxide as its sole source of carbon.

Terrestrial climate change linked to shift in atmospheric CO2

Last Updated: Tuesday, April 23, 2013, 18:49

New test results have provided further evidence that the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide and Earth`s surface temperature are inextricably linked.

New technique discovered to make fuel from CO2 in air

Last Updated: Wednesday, March 27, 2013, 16:59

Researchers have found a way to transform the carbon dioxide (CO2) trapped in the atmosphere into useful industrial products.

New tech needed for curbing CO2 at source

Last Updated: Sunday, February 17, 2013, 14:02

Reducing carbon dioxide emissions alone may not be enough to curb global warming. There is a need to develop technologies that remove large amounts of the gas at the source, say researchers.

Higher sea rises caused by past emission levels

Last Updated: Sunday, January 6, 2013, 12:37

Past greenhouse gas concentrations, similar to present levels of about 400 parts per million, were also linked to sea levels rising at least nine metres higher than current levels over the past 40 million years

Internet spews out 830 million tonnes of CO2

Last Updated: Saturday, January 5, 2013, 19:06

Internet, video and other cloud services, which comprise information communications and technology (ICT) industry, spews out more than 830 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually, researchers found.

Link between CO2 concentrations, sea level discovered

Last Updated: Thursday, January 3, 2013, 15:53

Researchers have found that greenhouse gas concentrations similar to the present are systematically associated with sea levels at least nine metres above current levels.

Increasing CO2 helps delay arrival of new ice age

Last Updated: Saturday, November 10, 2012, 13:37

Mankind’s emissions of carbon dioxide and the resulting temperature increase could prove to be our salvation from the next ice age, a new research has suggested.

Glaciers cracking due to presence of excessive CO2

Last Updated: Thursday, October 11, 2012, 17:18

Presence of excessive levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in our atmosphere is causing global temperatures to rise and glaciers and ice caps to melt, researchers have warned.

CO2 emissions by airlines in India significantly less: DGCA

Last Updated: Tuesday, October 9, 2012, 19:42

DGCA chief Arun Mishra said the regulator would continue to estimate the carbon footprint on an annual basis and formulate a realistic climate change policy for aviation in India.
