Microbes make different greenhouse gases during wetland drainage
Researchers found that soil microbes release less methane but more carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in draining peatlands.
Scientists reevaluate global methane emissions
Researchers used high-resolution satellite data to show the amount of methane entering the atmosphere currently surpasses the amount removed…
Underground microbes capture greenhouse gases
Researchers showed microbes living on the walls of underground caves can take up and store carbon dioxide and methane from the atmosphere.
Using Reishi mushrooms to filter methane out of the atmosphere
Could dead or living #fungi be used as a biofilter to trap and remove #methane, the potent #greenhousegas, from the atmosphere? Researchers…
