Scientists have found that a worldwide Green New Deal would create nearly 30 million jobs. By 2050 the world will spend around $17 trillion per year on energy if we’re still relying on fossil fuels, and that number goes down to $6.8 trillion if we’re using renewable energy.

New “bio-based hybrid foam” can absorb CO2 from the atmosphere more sustainably and cost-effectively, suggests new study, made by combining gelatin and cellulose with zeolites, minerals known for their absorbent properties. Researchers claim this new material is cheap and absorbs CO2 extremely well.

Researchers discovered you can make transparent solar windows by punching extremely small holes into crystalline silicon wafers, which when vertical only lose 4% efficiency compared to 30% for traditional solar cells, potentially suitable for powering high-rise buildings with lots of window space.

Simply telling people (n=7,250) they would receive a tax rebate increased their support for a carbon tax of $50-$70 per metric ton of carbon. This suggests that “revenue recycling” is the way to make carbon taxes popular.

Water from a melting glacier above the Arctic Circle was shown to be rich in minerals that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This unexpected side effect of glacial melting may sound like a climate change savior, but it will be over once the glaciers are gone.

Bacteria hidden deep in marsh mud can manufacture dimethyl sulfide, a molecule sometimes called an “anti-greenhouse gas.” Since DMS rapidly becomes an aerosol in the atmosphere and forms UV-blocking clouds, it could be a powerful tool in the fight against climate change.
