Scientists have engineered a living, carbon-capturing material that can be shaped by 3D printing and hardened over time ...

New research finds that centuries-old oaks can dynamically rewire how they absorb nutrients—suggesting forests may be more resilient allies in the climate fight than once believed.

Not only did nano fertilizers grow equally healthy crops as conventional fertilizers, researchers found they also released ...

New research finds that the global decline of scavengers like hyenas and vultures is putting ecosystems—and human health—at ...

A new paper offers a roadmap for integrating crop resilience and carbon mitigation into national and global climate ...

Green roofs can capture nearly all the microplastic particles that contaminate rainwater in modern cities, according to a new study. The findings add to the list of benefits of green roofs, which have ...

The paint replenishes its water supply by absorbing rain and water vapor. Its porous structure holds the water and then slowly releases it much like sweat.

Older companies are more environmentally sustainable than younger ones, according to a new analysis. The findings upend popular assumptions of old organizations as hidebound and incapable of change, ...

By firing rock dust in standard cement kilns, they altered the mineral's chemistry so that it quickly react with carbon dioxide in the air.

Researchers have employed an unlikely organism—fungi—to make a new type of biodegradable battery. The new 3D-printed fungal battery produces enough electricity for small sensors and it can tossed into ...

Efforts are underway all around the world to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it. Trees, of course, are naturals at this. Over their lifetime, they absorb large amounts of carbon ...

Blended fabrics are nearly impossible to recycle. Chemists now report a way to separate fabric blends into reusable components in just 15 minutes.
