Mongabay: The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has launched a global set of statistics on carbon emissions from deforestation, agriculture and other forms of land use for the 1990-2010 period. The dataset, which is part of the FAO's database of statistics known as FAOSTAT, is based on FAO estimates of forest biomass, deforestation, and crop cover. The data is listed by country and region. Unsurprisingly, the FAOSTAT GHG dataset shows that high deforestation countries generated the...

RedOrbit: A group of scientists at Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australia`s national science agency, have created a "solar sponge" using a metal organic framework (MOF) that absorbs carbon dioxide, but releases it when exposed to sunlight. The journal Angewandte Chemie published a paper detailing MOF. The interaction is known as dynamic photo-switching. The capture-and-release method of dynamic photo-switching requires only UV light to trigger the release of collected...

The carbon market, meant to be a pillar of the European Union's climate policy, has fallen to a series of record low prices because of a huge surplus of allowances, mostly generated by recession in the euro zone. The Commission's proposed rescue plan, referred to as backloading,...
