The two men were not alone in trying to chip away at decades of carbon emissions. An American start-up, Global Thermostat, now finishing its first commercial plant in Alabama, began working on air-capture machines in 2010. And almost from the start, Gebald and Wurzbacher found themselves in a friendly competition with David Keith, the Harvard engineering professor who had just started Carbon Engineering in British Columbia. Keith’s company settled on a different air-capture technology — employing a higher-heat process, and a liquid solution to capture CO₂ — to brew synthetic fuels. Climeworks’s big advantage is that it can make smaller plants early, Keith told me: “I am crazy jealous. It’s because they’re using a modular design, and we’re not.” On the other hand, Keith said he believes his firm is closer to building a big plant that could capture carbon at a more reasonable cost and produce substantial amounts of fuel. “I don’t see a path for them to match this.” Gebald told me he thinks his and Keith’s companies will each succeed with differing approaches. For now, what all the founders have in common is a belief that the cost of capturing a ton of carbon will soon drop sharply.

Dairy farms have the most to fear as they are the biggest consumers of water. With every cow drinking 125 litres of water a day, and all the grass in the fields burned yellow, it is a daily fight to keep every animal fed and watered.

The 2019 Kalanko geological model and resource estimation was prepared by Helen Oliver. Ms Oliver FGS, CGeol is Endeavour Mining’s Group Resource Geologist and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

Panasonic unveiled its full line up of Full HD plasma TVs for the UK market, with the brand-new ZT60 topping out the range.

An increase in gross profit was more than offset by a 39 per cent rise in operating costs to €18.3 million linked to the seven acquisitions the group carried out between August 2014 and March 2015

A Ural Airlines passenger plane carrying 225 people bound for Moscow made an emergency landing in Baku after the cabin crew thought there might be a bomb on board the plane, RIA news agency cited Baku’s airport as saying.

An intervention could take a variety of forms. It could be large grants for research to find better sorbent materials, for instance, which would be similar to government investments that long ago helped nurture the solar- and wind-power industries. But help could also come by expanding regulations that already exist. A new and obscure United States tax provision, known as 45Q and signed last year by President Trump, offers a tax credit of up to $50 a ton for companies that bury CO₂ in geologic formations. The credit can benefit oil and gas firms that pump CO₂ underground during drilling work, as well as power plants that capture emissions directly from their smokestacks. Yet it could be used by Climeworks too, should it open plants in the United States — but only if it manages to remove and bury 100,000 tons of CO₂ per year.

- The stacked grade decreased as mining activity at the high-grade Bakatouo pit ceased for heap leach operations and low-grade ore stockpiles were used.

From an environmental standpoint, air-capture fuels are not a utopian solution. Such fuels are carbon neutral, not carbon negative. They can’t take CO₂ from our industrial past and put it back into the earth. If all the cars, trucks and planes of the year 2050 run on renewable fuels instead of fossil fuels, their CO₂ emissions would need to be removed from the air, recycled into the same product they originally burned through, and the cycle would need to repeat, ad infinitum, lest emissions increase. Even so, these fuels could present an enormous improvement. Transportation — currently the most significant source of emissions by sector in the United States — could cease to be a net emitter of CO₂. Just as crucial, the technology of direct air capture could scale up to become better and cheaper.

Right now, the game is pretty bare-bones, but apparently playable from start to finish – assemble your ship, progress through the island and beat the robots at the heart of the island. Volcanoid (a mere three-person team) reckon there’s at least another two years of work yet to be done. Right now the game is single-player only, but the top features on their development roadmap are online co-op and PvP multiplayer, followed by a reworked quest system and a final boss fight in the volcano core. There’s new tech and guns yet to come, and lots more besides. See the full, detailed roadmap here.
