Carbon Capture Candidates Clean Up Climate Change
Forget mitigation and rationing, it is not the way cultures and progress work. The long-term solution is obviously to engage in basic research and come up with effective clean energy but also to create fewer emissions while development is in progress.America never migrated to nuclear energy the way the French did so today up to 75 percent of electricity used in the United States is instead produced by coal-burning power plants and that means carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and increased risk of global warming. To reduce the impact of current power generation, researchers are searching for porous materials to filter out the CO2 generated by those plants before it reaches the atmosphere, a process commonly known as carbon capture. read more
