New silica-organic hybrid absorbents deliver among highest performance yet reported for CO2 capture from air

Green Car Congress

After capturing carbon dioxide, the materials give it up easily so that the CO 2 can be used in making other substances, or permanently isolated from the environment. Other environmental implications of these emissions, such as ocean acidification, are also becoming increasingly apparent and worrisome. —Goeppert et al.

Study Concludes That Large-Scale Transport of Ethanol Could Negate Its Economic and Environmental Benefits Compared to Gasoline

Green Car Congress

Emissions from ethanol transport in the CMU study applied to ethanol life cycle emissions from other studies. Emissions from transport are recalculated using the CMU results. Emissions from ethanol transport estimated in the new work are up to two times those for ethanol transport in previous life cycle analysis studies.
