One of the many possible tools to stabilize Earth’s climate by reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide had its potential better defined this week, with a new study shedding light on the effectiveness of ...

Weathering and erosion are nature’s slow but powerful sculptors, breaking down rocks and reshaping landscapes over millions of years. From frost wedging in mountain peaks to rivers carving deep ...

For many hundreds of millions of years, the average temperature at the surface of the Earth has varied by not much more than 20 degrees Celsius, facilitating life on our planet. To maintain such ...

Despite a barren start to Colorado's ski season, Winter Park Resort opened on Halloween and served up holiday powder. The ski area's secret is a contraption a few miles upwind of the chairlifts that ...

Israeli researchers are working to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by speeding up the natural weathering process by which rain dissolves rock. In nature, rain absorbs CO2 from the ...

What if cropdusting could cool down the climate? What about rockdusting? Turns out sprinkling rock dust on fields may enhance a process called rock weathering, capable of trapping and removing ...

A new study reveals that implementing enhanced weathering (EW), the practice of adding crushed basalt to soils, with U.S. agriculture could remove between 160 and 300 million metric tons of carbon ...

Weathering and erosion slowly chisel, polish, and buff Earth's rock into ever evolving works of art—and then wash the remains into the sea. The processes are definitively independent, but not ...

Natural rock weathering is a fundamental part of Earth’s carbon cycle but occurs over thousands of years. Enhancing this cycle by spreading fine volcanic rock on agricultural land is a form of ...

For decades, Black women have been told that the negative health outcomes we face are our own fault. We’re fed rhetoric that we are diabetic because we won’t stop eating foods passed down as heirlooms ...

Breathing. I close my eyes and imagine my breath as an anchor, pulling me down into this moment. I notice thoughts that come up. Refocus. Breathing. All I need to focus on is right now. Just breathing ...
