Since the BRT statement there’s been a surge in aggressive carbon-reduction goals, up from just a handful of organizations a decade ago, to two-thirds of Fortune Global 500 companies with significant commitments today. They act in line with what science and decency demand, and they work on systemic issues, including the right policies.

When rain falls on volcanic rocks, it weathers them down, then flows into the ocean. There, oceans further break down the rocks. Carbon dioxide removed from the air becomes bicarbonate, which helps grow the shells of marine organisms and is stored in limestone on the ocean floor.

With the growth of e-commerce and demand for faster shipping (which means burning more fuel), maritime emissions increased nearly 5% between 2020 and 2021. The drop in sulfur oxide emissions, which ironically have a cooling effect in the atmosphere by reflecting light, has also played a role in record high ocean temps this year.

The nonprofit has named the threatened collapse of fisheries and unmet demand for seafood alternatives as important factors. By 2030, it expects demand for seafood to be 30 percent higher than 2010 levels. Seaweed, on the other hand, which makes up New Wave’s shrimp-mimic, sequesters carbon and reduces ocean acidification.

These include climate change, biosphere integrity (functional and generic), land-system change, freshwater use, biogeochemical flows (nitrogen and phosphorus), ocean acidification, atmospheric aerosol pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion, and the release of novel chemicals. In this documentary, we see how Greta has grown from here.

States, cities, businesses, and organizations across the country are taking increasingly large steps to reduce emissions — and those efforts are aided by the falling costs of renewable energy and other decarbonizing technologies. Climate pressures like ocean acidification have made it harder for the mollusks to build and maintain shells.

To meet demand, in Louisiana and elsewhere , utilities are rushing to build fossil fuel-powered plants that are pushing off sustainable energy goals, while exposing struggling communities to more greenhouse gas emissions from these energy-hungry data centers. The IEA projects electricity demand will grow by six-fold between now and 2035.

Grist Seaweed is a type of algae a huge class of photosynthetic organisms that primarily grow in the water. And they all grow by absorbing light from the sun and sucking nutrients and minerals and dissolved CO2 directly out of the ocean. Initially, that powder was seen as a waste product. That’s a sizable amount of cobalt.
