Carbon Engineering is a Calgary, Alberta-based company commercializing technology to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) directly from the atmosphere. The company was founded in 2009 by David Keith, now a professor of public policy and applied physics at Harvard University. It is based on his research conducted at the University of Calgary. Carbon Engineering is funded by several government and sustainability-focused agencies as well as by private investors, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates and oil sands financier N. Murray Edwards.
Technology
Carbon Engineering’s Direct Air Capture (DAC) system integrates two main cycles. The first cycle is the absorption of CO2 from the atmosphere in a device called an “air contactor” using an alkaline hydroxide solution. The second cycle regenerates the capture liquid used in the air contactor, and delivers pure CO2 as an end product. These cycles operate in tandem continuously, producing a concentrated stream of CO2 gas as an output, and requiring only energy, water, and small material make up streams as inputs. Energy is used in such a way that no new CO2 emissions are incurred, and thus do not counteract what was captured from the air. The captured atmospheric CO2 can be stored underground, used for enhanced oil recovery, or turned into low-carbon synthetic fuels.
Yuko Ueno, who runs Team HighField Co., the parent company of High Field, said, “Motorcycles are attractive because of the sound and vibration produced by the engine, but there is no way to change the trend toward carbon neutrality.”.
It ruins my experience. I don’t get compensated for my labor, nor get to enjoy an unnatural lawn ... The motor is two-cycle, so it does not burn as clean as a four-cycle engine like in an automobile (which still creates climate-changing carbon dioxide).
Even the climate denialism of President-elect Trump cannot stop it ... They require no petroleum fuels, and the carbon footprint of generating their electricity is just a fraction of the tailpipe emissions generated by internal combustion engines.

Construction materials such as concrete and plastic have the potential to lock away billions of tons of carbon dioxide, according to a new study by civil engineers and earth systems scientists at UC Davis and Stanford University.
Amid the worsening climate crisis, carbon trading markets have emerged as a cutting-edge tool for controlling greenhouse gas emissions ... The goal is straightforward — reduce emissions by putting a price on carbon pollution.
Powered by the latest Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-97 engines, the aircraft will bring a reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions of up to 40% when compared with previous generation aircraft with a similar payload-range capability.
Using the same technology used in the construction of Formula 1 cars and jet wings, a lot of thought - and money - has gone into creating the carbon fibre vessel that is going to be the brothers' home for, hopefully, approximately four months.
Powered by the latest Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-97 engines, the aircraft will bring a reduction in fuel consumption and carbon emissions of up to 40% when compared to previous generation aircraft with a similar payload-range capability.
Airbus claims the lighter airframe and efficient Rolls Royce engines produce a 20% advantage in fuel burn and carbon dioxide emissions over the legacy Boeing 777 currently in production, as well as the older Boeing 747-400.
After months of testing at NokiaBell Labs, Intuitive Machines engineers have installed the LSCS “network in a box” to one of Athena’s upper carbon-composite panels.
... goods while working as a porter at The Savoy in the late 1800s — other names to know include German-engineered Horizn Studios and Paravel, a sustainable label dedicated to carbon-offsetting practices.
AmericanPowerGroup's subsidiary, American Power Group Inc., ("APG"), provides cost-effective alternative fueling solutions for diesel engines to significantly reduce methane criteria pollutants and help accelerate a low-carbon future.
Have a carbon monoxide alarm installed in your home... Improperly ventilated appliances and engines, including generators, particularly in a tightly sealed or enclosed space, can allow carbon monoxide to accumulate to dangerous levels.
Carbon is not our enemy. Carbon is not the magic knob that we can turn to control the entire climate ... Carbon is a major constituent of all life on earth and the major food of the plant realm. We humans are made of Carbon ... Geo-engineering is widespread.
