What if two carbon signals told 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 stories?. That’s exactly what we found in our latest greenhouse experiment on enhanced weathering (EW). Over two full years, we measured two carbon signals for 400 pot experiments:. • Soil CO₂ efflux -

Your Weekly Dose of Rock Solid EW Knowledge!. For enhanced weathering projects, common amounts of rock spread on the fields are between 5 and 20 tons per hectare. Some in-field experiments even go up to 40 or 50 tons per hectare. We even tried 400 t/ha in our lab tests to see

Biological pest control in our greenhouse: We have brought an army of lady bug larvae and lacewing larvae (in the photo) into the greenhouse to hunt lice and other bugs that feed from the grass and clover plants in our experiments. And they are everywhere!

“The next generation is doomed.”. That’s what older folks always say, right?. They said it about my generation, too. Now, at 56, I hear similar things from my peers: complaints about TikTok culture, influencer nonsense, or a perceived lack of seriousness among younger people.

After the rock is crushed and milled, it needs to be transported to the field. As long as this transport is not solely powered by regenerative energy, which will remain the case for some time, the distances are limited that we can drive rock around in trucks while still creating

Die COVID-Inzidenz-Abschätzung aus den Hospitalisierungsdaten der @DGINA_eV Notaufnahme Ampel zeigt sehr ähnliche Werte (schwankend um 200) wie es @rv_enigma aus anderen Daten abschätzt. Damit liegen wir z.Zt. besser als in beiden Vorgängerjahren.

In May, @Climeworks launched 𝘔𝘢𝘮𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩, the world’s largest DAC+storage plant. But this milestone is just one part of a bigger story. From a Swiss lab in 2009 to megaton-scale plans by 2030 and a gigaton-scale vision by 2050, Climeworks isn’t just removing CO₂; they’re.

It all starts with the rock (or, sometimes, with industrial residues). Suitable rocks like basalt, lime or dunite are mined and get crushed down to grain sizes of a few hundred microns. As a rule of thumb: The smaller the better because this increases the surface area for the

From the beginning we intended to share all our data from our ERW experiments! Now there is a dedicated website for this, the Cascade Data Quarry! This will become a cornucopia for EW scientists!. Only shared data, and lots of it, will help Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) become a

No solution is already perfect during development. All great solutions initially started as somewhat flawed solutions, then improved later. But you need to start somewhere!. I see it often. Someone shares a hopeful climate idea: a new solution, experiment, or prototype. And
