Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), also termed enhanced weathering (EW), aims to alter seawater chemistry, usually by spreading finely ground alkaline minerals like silicates and carbonates in seawater or on coastal lands.

Macroalgae, or seaweeds, are large, plantlike organisms that grow naturally in the ocean and, like land plants, take up and store carbon via photosynthesis.

Electricity can be used to remove carbon dioxide from seawater by driving well-understood chemical reactions that either liberate carbon dioxide gas from the seawater for capture and sequestration, or alter seawater’s chemical balances to enable it to store more CO2 than it naturally would.

“Blue carbon” methods are a wide-ranging category of nature-based climate solutions that aim to preserve or enhance the ocean’s natural CO2 capture and storage capacity by protecting, restoring, or better managing specific ocean ecosystems.

A new partnership will work to reduce methane emissions from production of milk around the world.

Thanks to our supporters, EDF helped deliver remarkable climate progress around the world in 2022 — including a new U.S. climate law that many had thought impossible.

The U.S. made an important commitment at COP27 yesterday that will help reduce climate and air pollution from the dirtiest vehicles on our roads and create a foundation for more ambitious action, which is urgently needed to reduce pollution from trucks and buses.

Climate change has been brought into sharp focus in recent years with intense weather events leading to food shortages, famine and the destruction of homes, businesses and infrastructure.
