Demystifying Ocean Carbon Dioxide Removal - Apr 17, 2024 Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (75 Views;92 min.) |
| More information at: https://www.eesi.org/041624ocean The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) and the World Resources Institute (WRI) held a briefing about ocean carbon dioxide removal (CDR). Reaching global climate goals will require not only deep and rapid reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, but also large-scale removal of excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. While federal funding for research, development, and demonstration of land-based CDR approaches and technologies has increased significantly in recent years, the ocean also presents opportunities for carbon removal. The ocean covers 70% of the Earth and serves as its largest carbon sink, holding 42 times the carbon in the atmosphere. Ocean CDR—the practice of removing and storing carbon from the ocean—is garnering increasing scientific, governmental, and private sector interest. At the same time it presents uncertainties related to efficacy, ecosystem impacts, and governance, which ... |

NASA’s Fermi Mission Sees No Gamma Rays from Nearby Supernova - Apr 16, 2024 PHYS.ORG - Earth (5,135 Views;3 min.) |
| A nearby supernova in 2023 offered astrophysicists an excellent opportunity to test ideas about how these types of explosions boost particles, called cosmic rays, to near light-speed. But surprisingly, NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected none of the high-energy gamma-ray light those particles should produce. On May 18, 2023, a supernova erupted in the nearby Pinwheel galaxy (Messier 101), located about 22 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. The event, named SN 2023ixf, is the most luminous nearby supernova discovered since Fermi launched in 2008. Astrophysicists previously estimated that supernovae convert about 10% of their total energy into cosmic ray acceleration. Using Fermi observations of SN 2023ixf, scientists calculated an energy conversion as low as 1% within a few days after the explosion. This doesn’t rule out supernovae as cosmic ray factories, but it does mean we have more to learn about their production. Scientists have ... |

Postcards From Earth to NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter - Apr 17, 2024 PHYS.ORG - Earth (4,339 Views;2 min.) |
| Throughout its mission on the Red Planet, NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter received thousands of electronic postcards filled with well wishes from all over the world via the mission’s website. In this video, members of the Ingenuity team read messages expressing gratitude and appreciation for the helicopter and its accomplishments on Mars. \n\nIngenuity hitched a ride to Mars aboard NASA’s Perseverance rover, arriving on Feb. 18, 2021. On April 19, 2021, the helicopter made history when it completed the first powered, controlled flight on another planet. It flew for the last time on Jan. 18, 2024.\n\nDesigned to be a technology demonstration that would make no more than five experimental test flights over 30 days, the helicopter eventually completed 72 flights in just under three years, soaring higher and faster than the team ever imagined. \n\nFor more information on Ingenuity, go to: mars.nasa.gov/ingenuity \n\nCredit: NASA/JPL-Caltech; images from Perseverance’s WATSON ... |

Liquid Trees: Captures pollutants including CO2 using microscopic algae - Apr 15, 2024 Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (23 Views;1 min.) |
| Our technology offers an integrated approach to mitigate climate change and restore river ecosystems while making a transformative impact on local ecosystem of Indian river bodies especially The Hindon and the Yamuna River. River systems themselves accumulate carbon, having a valuable contribution as a carbon sink and in the global carbon cycle. Bioremediation technology using Diatoms developed by Liquid Trees utilizes the natural capabilities of diatoms to remove or degrade organic and inorganic contaminants from the polluted water bodies, reducing the risk of health problems and ultimately improve the quality of the environment. |

Marine Cloud Brightening - Tribute to Stephen Salter - Apr 14, 2024 Climate Engineering (Lockley - Playlist) (2,011 Views;61 min.) |
| The Climate Emergency Forum hosts a discussion about the late Stephen Salter, a pioneering professor of engineering at the University of Edinburgh, and his work on marine cloud brightening (MCB) as a potential solution for mitigating global warming.\n\nThis video was recorded on March 27th, 2024, and published on April 14th, 2024.\n\nThe participants reflect on Salter's innovative ideas and creative mindset. A key focus is Salter's proposal to use a fleet of unmanned ships to spray fine sea water droplets into marine clouds to increase their reflectivity and albedo, thereby reflecting more sunlight back into space and cooling the planet. Salter provided calculations on the number of ships needed for different cooling goals, such as reversing sea level rise or preserving Arctic ice. The dialogue highlights the relatively low cost and scalability of this approach versus other geoengineering methods.\n\nThe participants emphasize the need for solutions like MCB, given the rapidly ... |
