Reporting of climate crisis has been lousy for years, experts say, in a country where rightwing press has been dominant
Share The DESARC-MARESANUS project, a collaboration between the Politecnico di Milano and the CMCC Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change Foundation, addresses two serious environmental problems: the increase of the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, with the consequent increase in temperatures, and the acidification of the oceans, which destabilizes the ecosystem and threatens vital ecosystem services. To counter these problems, it is necessary to develop and implement active Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategies, which also address ocean acidification: artificia...
Reducing ocean acidification by removing CO2: Two targets April 14, 2021ScienceBlog.com Is it possible to simultaneously address the increase of the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and the resulting acidification of the oceans? The research of the project DESARC-MARESANUS, a collaboration between the Politecnico di Milano and the CMCC Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change Foundation, explores the feasibility of this process, its chemical and environmental balance, and the benefits for the marine sector, focusing on the Mediterranean basin. It is now widely recogn...
