In the face of climate change, permafrost peatland wildfires could play more of a role in the destructive cycle of global warming, University of Alberta research suggests.

Rivers are a primary source of the plastics that clog oceanic ecosystems and contribute to the continent-sized Great Pacific garbage patch. Broken-down plastics cycle through ecosystems, accumulating ...

Today, you can buy a pair of sneakers partially made from carbon dioxide pulled out of the atmosphere. But measuring the carbon-reduction benefits of making that pair of sneakers with CO 2 is complex.

The idea of animating the carbon cycle (ACC) is relatively new. The concept champions the role that healthy populations of wild animals, both terrestrial and marine, can play in boosting the ability ...

Carbon is found all around the Earth, including in our bodies. While most of the carbon can be found in the geosphere, it is also found in all living things, soil, in the ocean, and in the atmosphere.
