CarbonBrief: Analysis: Global coal power set for record fall in 2019
„Global electricity production from coal is on track to fall by around 3% in 2019, the largest drop on record.“

„The[nbsp]Earth System Governance Speaker Series at Utrecht University is excited to host author and scholar Dr Jesse Reynolds of University of California, Los Angeles School of Law, who will share his insights on the governance of solar geoengineering with regard to international climate policies, followed by a discussion by Wageningen University’s Dr Aarti Gupta.“
„In these notes I explore one set of ideas for helping address climate change: direct air capture (DAC) of carbon dioxide – basically, using clever chemical reactions to pull CO2 out of the atmosphere, so it can be stored or re-used.“
„ICGG 2020: 14. International Conference on Geotechnics and Geoengineering[nbsp]aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Geotechnics and Geoengineering. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Geotechnics and Geoengineering.“
„A carbon dioxide capture facility is disclosed comprising packing formed as a slab, and at least one liquid source. The slab has opposed dominant faces, the opposed dominant faces being at least partially wind penetrable to allow wind to flow through the packing.“
„Thanks to climate change, a rash of organisations are now offering to absolve guilt over polluting if we pay them to “offset” carbon, sometimes by planting trees. While their motives may be admirable, this new gold rush could prove to be a dangerous delusion.“
„With emissions still rising, climate geo-engineering is a topic we need to debate. But political researchers fear people are falling into the[nbsp]same left/right tribalism that has long plagued climate politics.“

Woods, Bryndis, and Liz Stanton (2019): “Policy Brief: Technosilvicultural Reclamation for Environmental Emission Sequestration.”
„This Applied Economics Clinic policy brief—prepared on behalf of the Home Energy Efficiency Team (HEET) and Speak for the Trees (SFTT)—compares two cutting-edge carbon dioxide emission sequestration (or storage) technologies on the basis of cost, history of success, near-term commercial viability, co-benefits, and potential risks: 1) Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), and 2) Technosilvicultural Reclamation for Environmental Emission Sequestration (TREES).“
„ExxonMobil and FuelCell Energy, Inc. have signed a new, two-year expanded joint-development agreement to further enhance carbonate fuel cell technology for the purpose of capturing carbon dioxide from industrial facilities.“
