“The proposed solution to co-remove methane and CO2 from low concentration sources has the potential of #removing more CO2-equivalents from the atmosphere at lower energy penalty when compared to technologies that focus on removing only CO2 from the air, the study affirmed.”

Findings of this study suggest that “restoring mangroves, which are common in tropical shallow marine settings, will lead to notable local #OceanAlkalinityEnhancement across a wide range of scenarios.”

“The process is seagrass & mangroves influence the organic & inorganic cycling of C in sediment, with strong impacts on diffusive #alkalinity fluxes. In carbonate-rich sediment, seagrass & mangroves foster carbonate dissolution, resulting in increased alkalinity production...

🚨NEW STUDY🚨
🌋 A recent study by @Olenellus & @GambixPT published in @geosociety found that “an extinct #volcano off the shore of Portugal could store as much as 1.2-8.6 gigatons of CO2, the equivalent of 24-125yrs of the country’s industrial emissions.”

“Doing so would rely on a method known as in situ mineral #carbonization, which works when the CO2 taken from the air is pumped deep underground.”

“Once in the bowels of this extinct volcano, calcium, magnesium, and iron react to the incoming carbon dioxide to form calcite, dolomite, and magnesite, trapping the CO2 forever in a rocky prison.”
