Giant clams in Palauan reefs have captivated scientists due to their iridescent flesh. New research reveals these clams possess exceptionally efficient solar panels, far surpassing human-made technology. Alison Sweeney, aContinue Reading
Living Carbon, a biotech firm, is going beyond traditional tree-planting efforts and developing gene-hacked “mother trees” that have exceptional abilities to absorb a significant amount of carbon dioxide. If theContinue Reading
By jam-packing photosynthetic algae into sugary droplets of water, scientists are building mini biological factories that churn out hydrogen (H2) that could be used as a source of carbon-neutral energy. UnderContinue Reading
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have used semi-artificial photosynthesis to produce hydrogen fuel from water using the most abundant source of power – sunlight. They used natural sunlight toContinue Reading
Scientists have developed a device that mimics photosynthesis and uses sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to produce ethylene gas – a key chemical used in large quantities for manufacturing plastics,Continue Reading
Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have discovered a new way of storing energy from sunlight that could lead to ‘unlimited’ solar power. The process, loosely based on plantContinue Reading
