Climate change widespread, rapid, and intensifying – IPCC GENEVA, Aug 9 – Scientists are observing changes in the Earth’s climate in every region and across the whole climate system, according to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report, released today.

According to a study involving scientists from the University of Oklahoma (USA), INRAE and the LSCE (CEA-CNRS-UVSQ), the Brazilian Amazon rainforest has released more carbon than it has absorbed over the last ten years. The cause: the degradation of the forest due to human activities and climate change. see

In a new article in Nature Geoscience, an international research team led by Daniel Goll from the LSCE explored the use of soil amendment with powdered basalt. This is a fully developed NET which can be co-deployed in existing land systems and is thus suited for rapid upscaling. The principle of this NET is to enhance the natural reaction of carbon dioxide with weathering minerals.
