Where in the United States is the net carbon benefit of direct air capture the greatest?

A Direct Air Carbon Capture and Storage (DACCS) system is one method of CDR that removes CO2 from the atmosphere via chemical reactions, then compresses and transports it to a long-term geological storage site. The energy needed for the capture is a combination of electricity and thermal energy that is provided by natural gas or waste heat from industrial processes.

Coal mine superemitters of methane

The release of methane to the atmosphere is a major focus of efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, accounting for about 20% of anthropogenic global warming since 1750.1  Since 2007, globally averaged atmospheric methane has been increasing at an accelerating rate.2  In addition to its impact on climate, methane contributes to the formation of

Is Boston on track to be carbon-neutral by 2050?

In 2007, Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino issued an executive order that committed the City to reducing its annual GHG emissions by 80% below 1990 levels by 2050.1 This set in motion an ongoing stream of research, community engagement, and policies to reduce GHG emissions by improving energy efficiency and shifting to cleaner fuels and electricity. In 2016, Mayor Martin

Has Renew Boston Trust improved energy efficiency and reduced emissions?

Launched in 2017, Renew Boston Trust is the City’s program to finance energy efficiency in municipal buildings. The basic idea is simple: the City of Boston invests in energy conservation measures in its buildings, then pays itself back using the money saved on its energy bills, which is guaranteed by the contractor that City hires to perform the work.  In addition
