Dr. Germino's latest research, published in the Communications Earth & Environment journal in November 2024, reveals a startling and significant finding: invasive grasses are turning western U.S. rangelands from valuable carbon sinks into potential carbon sources. This research, a two-year collaboration between the US Geological Survey and Envu, provides the first comprehensive assessment of the impact of invasive annual grasses, like cheatgrass, on soil carbon stocks. The study found that the conversion of native perennial shrublands to these invasive grasslands can result in a 42-49% reduction in soil carbon, releasing a significant amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. It also found that wildfire and grass invasion had a similar impact on soil carbon stocks, a surprising finding that challenges previous assumptions about the relative impacts of these disturbances. Dr. Germino is joined by another study author, Dr. Harry Quicke from Envu. They discuss implications of this new research for rangeland management and potential solutions. This is part 2 of the discussion. To hear the first part, go to episode 147.

Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) do much more than fill whales' bellies. These tiny crustaceans also play a huge role in Earth's carbon cycle.They sequester around 40 million tonnes of carbon each year, mostly in their poo — that's the equivalent of taking 35 million cars off the road.Yet there's plenty we don't know about these thumb-sized critters.Now a new study has revealed what they get up to under the Antarctic winter sea ice, and how this behaviour affects carbon calculations.Dive into the secret life of krill on Lab Notes, the show that brings you the science of new discoveries and current events.Get in touch with us: labnotes@abc.net.au

In today's deep dive, we'll learn about the nation's first commercial carbon storage plant in Illinois.

Der dänische Projektlogistiker Blue Water Shipping ist bereits in Deutschland durch Aktivitäten in Cuxhaven (über ein Joint Venture mit der Reederei BREB) und Hamburg vertreten. Seit kurzem gibt es auch eine neue Niederlassung in Bremen. Deren neuer Leiter Cord Behr berichtet in der neuen Episode des HANSA PODCASTs über weitere Wachstumspläne in Deutschland. Dabei geht es um eine angepasste Auslastung des Terminal-Geschäfts in Cuxhaven, einen Aus- und Aufbau des Teams in Bremen sowie perspektivisch auch neue Niederlassungen in Süddeutschland oder im Ruhrgebiet: "Wir wollen nah an den Kunden sein und Deutschland ist ein wichtiger Projektmarkt. Viele Entscheidungen werden noch immer hier getroffen und es gibt auch noch einige Produktion am Standort", sagt Behr. Blue Water Shipping ist besonders stark in der Projektlogistik für die Windenergie-Industrie. Aber auch das Öl/Gas-Geschäft sowie das Geschäft mit anderen Industriekunden und EPC sind wichtige Standbeine der Gruppe. Bisher war der Plan der Dänen, das Geschäft mit deutschen Industriekunden über Dänemark abzuwickeln. Behr spricht über die Attraktivität des Standorts Deutschland und darüber, warum man nun doch auf eigene Niederlassungen hierzulande setzt. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt des Unternehmens ist das Thema "Carbon Storage". Dafür arbeitet man – mit Unterstützung der dänischen Regierung und der EU – an einem Projekt mit einem Schiff. Für die "regulären" Projektlogistikdienste setzt Blue Water vor allem auf Charter-Schiffe. Behr geht im Gespräch auch die Pläne für die Schifffahrt, den Anteil der maritimen Komponente und der landbasierten Dienstleistungen am Portfolio ein sowie die Auswirkungen aktueller politischer Entwicklungen ein, wenn eta ein "sehr starker Markt auf einmal komplett wegbricht". Nicht zuletzt spricht er über "grüne Anforderungen" von Kunden an die Logistik, Hafen-Aktivitäten, Wachstumspläne in Europa und auf den Weltmärkten sowie die Arbeit in einem familiengeführten Unternehmen mit einem fast 80-jährigen Gründer, der bei einigen Meetings noch immer mit am Tisch sitzt. Das Bremer Büro könne aber sehr eigenständig und flexibel arbeiten, sagt der ehemalige Panalpina-Manager Behr.

South-East Asia has big plans to become a regional carbon storage hub. Can it work or are the risks too great? Synopsis: Every first and third Sunday of the month, The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change. For years now, we've heard a lot about carbon capture and storage as one possible solution to climate change. CCS, as it is known, involves capturing carbon dioxide emissions from polluting operations, such as power plants, refineries and steel and cement production and injecting the CO2 deep underground.  And not just anywhere. It has to be the right type of geological formation to ensure the CO2 doesn't escape.  But CCS hasn't taken off quite as well as many, especially those in the fossil fuel industry, had hoped for. There have been several very costly failures. And yet there are plans to greatly scale up CCS, including the creation of regional CCS hubs. One of these is in South-east Asia, using depleted oil and gas wells.  This would lock away CO2 captured from industries in the region, or, CO2 brought in by tanker ships from major polluting nations such as Japan. So, is this a good idea? Can it make a difference in fighting climate change? Or, is it just storing up trouble for the future? To tell ST's climate change editor David Fogarty more about this is energy sector expert Grant Hauber, advisor for Asia for the Institute for Energy Economics & Financial Analysis, a US-based think tank.  Highlights of conversation (click/tap above): 2:02 What is carbon capture and storage? 4:33 What are CCS hubs and can you explain the regional plans to create them? 8:43 CCS has been around for several decades. What have we learned? 17:10 And what about liability? Who's responsible for any leaks? 21:01 CCS remains expensive.

Storing carbon dioxide underground could offset the record amounts of CO2 that humans emit each year. If this technology is successful, it could be an answer to climate change impacts, such as rising temperatures and acidification of the ocean. However, the process is complex and costly. A team of researchers is exploring one way liquid CO2 could be injected into rock formations, which may efficiently convert the molecule into a solid.

#246Our best climate models for helping limit global warming to 1.5oC may have wildly overestimated our chances. To reach this goal, models are relying heavily on geological carbon storage, a technology that removes carbon from the atmosphere and places it underground. But it may not be nearly as effective as models have suggested, making the task of decarbonising much more difficult. Do we need to rethink our approach?Intel has announced it has constructed the world's biggest computer modelled on the human brain and nervous system. This neuromorphic computer, called Hala Point, may only be the size of a microwave oven, but its innovative technology could someday run artificial intelligence that's smarter and more energy efficient.After a blast of sound from a keyboard shot through her whole body, experimental musician Lola De La Mata was hit with debilitating tinnitus.

Fertility treatments in Alabama are in limbo. Last month, the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are children. Soon after, the state passed a law meant to protect in vitro fertilization, commonly called IVF.   Drew Hawkins, reporter with the Gulf States Newsroom, brings us the stories of several families who worry the protections may not hold.   Carbon sequestration is gaining attention as a potential solutions to help combat climate change. Louisiana has been touted as having ideal geology for pumping carbon dioxide deep into the ground, where it's less likely to contribute to global warming. But there's a potential problem standing in the way — thousands of abandoned oil and gas wells.  Nicholas Kusnetz, reporter for Inside Climate News, explains how abandoned wells create a so-called “swiss cheese” effect. And new research shows they may limit the effectiveness of carbon sequestration.  New Orleanians will cast ballots this fall on whether to add a “Workers' Bill of Rights” to the city charter, following a City Council vote last month.  These rights would include access to fair wages, paid leave and health care, as well as the right to organize a workplace union. The election will take place on November 5, 2024 — the same day as the presidential election. Labor rights advocates and some council members hope it helps address what they see as a lack of protections for local workers.  Britain Forsyth, Louisiana legislative coordinator for Step Up Louisiana, and Kenny Arbuthnot, a Dollar General store worker, join the show to discuss their efforts.  ___ Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Louisiana is one of the hotspots in the U.S. for sequestration projects that trap carbon dioxide (CO2) underground to protect the climate. Companies are planning 58 storage wells at 24 sites across the state. However, experts say a century of oil and gas drilling has left thousands of pathways for CO2 to squeeze its way back out into the atmosphere, potentially eroding any climate benefits and creating a safety threat for nearby residents in the event of a massive rupture or leak. Two recent reports examine the threat from the more than 186,000 abandoned oil and gas wells in Louisiana.

Carbon storage is still a new topic for landowners with few acres of forest, but there are programs out there that owners of smaller forests can learn more about carbon storage and their forests. Michael Lauve of NativState talks about this emerging topic for owners of smaller forests and issues landowners need to learn bout to determine whether carbon storage could fit into their forest management plan.Minding the Forest is a podcast of the Louisiana Forestry Association and his hosted by LFA Media Specialist Jeff Zeringue.

Removing carbon directly from the air might seem like a technology of the distant future, but ‘direct air capture' is increasingly becoming a reality, especially as companies try to figure out how they're going to meet their net-zero targets. How does DAC actually work, and how seriously should we take it compared to other means of carbon removal? On today's show, Dana sits down with Sharon Mustri and Brenna Casey from BNEF's Sustainable Materials team. Together they take a look at the companies that are investing in DAC, the cost of this technology as well as its rival carbon removal methods, and how one can go about storing all that carbon once it's been filtered and captured. Today's episode draws from the BNEF research note Direct Air Capture: Market and Cost Outlook, which assesses the DAC market through 2050. Complimentary BNEF research on the trends driving the transition to a lower-carbon economy can be found at BNEF on the Bloomberg Terminal, on bnef.com or on the BNEF mobile app. Links to research notes from this episode: Direct Air Capture: Market and Cost Outlook - https://www.bnef.com/insights/32021 Amazon, Microsoft Boost Demand for Carbon Removal Tech - https://www.bnef.com/shorts/s16pkct0g1kw01 Occidental's Big Buy May Alter Path of $150 Billion Market - https://www.bnef.com/insights/32055See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is well-known that plants and trees store enormous amounts of carbon.  What has not been common knowledge is that the vast underground network of fungi across the world's lands stores billions of tons carbon, roughly equivalent to 36% of yearly global fossil fuel emissions. These mycorrhizal fungi form symbiotic relationships with almost all land […]

All plants, including algae and cyanobacteria, carry out photosynthesis. During the process of photosynthesis, plants remove carbon dioxide from the air and release oxygen to the air.  As a result, plants play a crucial role in the fight against climate change.  According to a new study recently published in the journal Nature Geoscience, mosses – […]

(0:40) - New additives could turn concrete into an effective carbon sink

We've all seen the moths gather around the kitchen light or campfire flame at night, but have you ever wondered why they're drawn to it? Well, there are loads of theories, but the team explores a brand new one which suggests insects don't come seeking the light, but are instead imprisoned by it.Life finds a way. Even amid the vast swathe of plastic and junk in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, creatures have set up home, thousands of miles from their natural habitats. Is this a reassuring sign of adaptability, or do we need to be worried?Our cyborg future is upon us. It may be early stages, but the team finds out about a new experiment which has, for the first time, printed conductive material inside a living organism. This material may one day be used to create working circuits and implants inside the body.The ocean is a massive carbon sink - but can we enhance its effects? The team discusses a concept called ocean alkalinisation, which aims to boost carbon storage by dumping a load of alkaline material into the sea. An experimental project is set to test the theory soon - but is it safe?With the rise of AI large language models like GPT-4 and Bard, will we begin to see them rival human level intelligence - or will an entirely new type of intelligence emerge? As a taste of New Scientist's special issue on the AI Revolution, we hear from Melanie Mitchell, professor of complexity at the Santa Fe Institute in New Mexico.On the pod are Rowan Hooper, Madeleine Cuff, Michael Le Page and Alex Wilkins.

Any discussion of climate change must consider the role of peatlands. These water-soaked ecosystems comprised of decaying mosses and other plant matter cover a mere 3 percent of the earth's surface yet store more carbon than all of the world's forests. But a debate in Canada now pits the mining of minerals essential to renewable energy against protection of critical peatlands. To learn more, WCS Wild Audio checked in with Lorna Harris, a scientist and the program lead for WCS Canada's national program for Forests, Peatlands, and Climate Change.

Our oceans and waterways are our largest carbon sinks and they're overflowing with CO2. Too much CO2 in our waterways can cause tremendous local damage, but there may be ways to clean that up. Using a cyclic process without messy membranes you can get water to release the CO2 captured inside. Extracting excess CO2 from oceans could be possible with only some clever chemistry cells with no waste byproducts. Now that you've got CO2 out of the ocean, what are you going to do with it? Make it work for you. Carbon sequestration can be more useful than just pumping it into the ground. With the right techniques you can use excess CO2 to improve construction materials.  Seoni Kim, Michael Nitzsche, Simon B Rufer, Jack R. Lake, Kripa Kiran Varanasi, T.
