Farmlands in China feed more people than those of any other country on Earth, yet they also generate a large share of the nation’s carbon emissions. For many years, this reality posed a difficult ...

Methane levels in Earth’s atmosphere surged faster than ever in the early 2020s, and scientists say the reason was a surprising mix of chemistry and climate. A temporary slowdown in the atmosphere’s ...

Jessica Rimsza, a materials engineer at Sandia National Laboratories, sees untapped potential in what most people see as waste. Food scraps, manure and sewage are natural byproducts of the U.S.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the atmosphere temporarily lost its ability to break down methane, leading to a huge spike in the greenhouse gas.

Mars Express and Curiosity detected methane and long-chain organic molecules in Gale Crater, including decane, undecane, and dodecane analyzed by the SAM laboratory.

In a paradox of air pollution, a decrease in man-made pollutants led to more methane in our atmosphere. And natural wetlands released more of the planet-warming gas at the same time ...

NO x reacts with air to form hydroxyl radicals. These go on to destroy methane, turning it into carbon dioxide, a less potent greenhouse gas. So, less NO x inadvertently led to more methane persisting ...

Scientists have unveiled a sunlight-powered catalyst that transforms methane—the main component of natural gas—directly into ethanol, a high-value liquid fuel and chemical feedstock. The new material, ...

Did you know Plaster of Paris has been known since ancient times, and its name comes from the abundant gypsum deposits found near Paris, France? That's the Paris connection. Gypsum plaster was used in ...

Diamond is the only gem with a single element. Diamonds are formed in the Earth’s mantle, at depths exceeding 120 km (75 miles), under extreme temperatures and pressures. Over a billion years, the ...
