Engineers have built machines to scrub CO₂ from the air. But will it halt climate change?

TechnologyBy EditorJanuary 21, 2021Leave a comment

CO₂ removal can be done in two ways. The first is by enhancing carbon storage in natural ecosystems, such as planting more forests or storing more carbon in soil. The second is by using direct air capture (DAC) technology that strips CO₂ from the ambient air, then either stores it underground or turns it into products.
