A study published in the journal Nature Geoscience states that the global economic recession has done one positive thing. It has reduced carbon dioxide levels for the first time in ten years.

A team of Australian researchers is working on a way to capture greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, with what it being called “molecular sponges." These sponges could help in our fight to control greenhouse gases in our atmosphere.  

Battery tech is starting to see some innovation; today Ford announced a new extended life battery system for the Ford Focus.

After a mission failure in 2009, NASA plans to launch the replacement Orbiting Carbon Observatory in February 2013.

The exhaust fumes from idling cars waiting at fast-food drive-thru lanes produce plenty of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. We’re polluting our environment for the convenience of not having to walk inside. Do you want some guilt with that order of fries? Read on!

A new alliance led by IBM aims to improve energy, water, waste and greenhouse gas management through interoperability. Green Sigma applies Lean Six Sigma principles and practices to these areas.

See all those little red lights on your electrical equipment?  Remember all those “black balloon” adverts?  Feeling too lazy to flick the switch at the point after a gaming session?  If so, there are a couple of new products about to hit the Australian market that might save your hip pocket as well as your ever-polluting soul.

A CSIRO discovery could lead to a new boom industry that would not only solve the world's energy problems but also its greenhouse gas concerns, while creating much needed employment. It might sound too good to be true, but the CSIRO, Australia's flagship research organisation, is no pie in the sky organisation and it is deadly serious about this.

After lifting off at 1:55 a.m. Pacific Standard Time (PST) on Tuesday, February, 24, 2009, NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory did not reach its intended orbit. Its mission was declared 'lost' when it crashed into the Antarctic Ocean.

So a mobile phone industry body has finally settled on a standardised charging scheme. I smell greenwash.
