@UCLAengineering @UCLACivil @gnsant, a member of @cnsiatucla, leads a @UCLA research team in developing a new technology using seawater as a "sponge" to help extract metric tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. #engineerchange #engineertogether newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/u…

Could the ocean hold the key to reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

UCLA researchers have outlined a strategy that would use seawater to trap and store billions of metric tons of the greenhouse gas each year.

'There is no other sector that holds such a big lever for climate impact' |

Construction and mining are often overlooked but account for 17% of global CO2 emissions. Meaning that there is obviously a lever here. What is the most promising way to bring down these emissions?
