Carbon capture technologies extract carbon from the air and convert it into other materials. This process could reduce climate change if done on a large scale. Trees have similar effects, which is one reason why planting them is good for the environment.
Coal plants release a lot of carbon when they burn coal, along with sulfur and other contaminants. The ashes and particles can travel long distances after their release, and can create a breathing hazard, as well as causing other problems such as acid rain and creating a dark layer on ice that melts the ice.

Algae already have a vital role in the ecosystem since they can produce oxygen from carbon dioxide in the air through photosynthesis. Algae at a power plant provide the flexibility to capture carbon at the source and reduce the carbon emissions before these emissions reach the atmosphere. As with other plant materials, algae can also […]
To deal with climate change, it is necessary to trap carbon produced in manufacturing. Clean energy production is not ramping up quickly enough to reduce the carbon present in the atmosphere. So the IRS has created carbon sequestration credits to provide a tax break for manufacturers who trap carbon, and the Treasury proposed removing tax […]
