What We Learned from the World’s Largest Greenhouse Experiment The Unexpected Challenges of Enhanced Weathering (Whitepaper)
Die neue Stellungnahme der DGN zu ME/CFS ignoriert leider aktuelle wissenschaftliche Fortschritte zu den immunologischen Mechanismen postinfektiöser ME/CFS. Stattdessen propagiert sie überholte Konzepte – und legitimiert damit auch weiterhin unwirksame und schädigende Therapien.…
The plants on the first approx. 450 pots of our new 2025/2026 greenhouse experiment for enhanced weathering have had a good start. Even more pots are coming soon... This week we have taken and measured the first set of leachate water samples. @carbon_drawdown #projectcarbdown
A 48-hour flask test that predicts 700-day carbon removal outcomes? Sounds too good to be true, but in our lab, it’s working. In our 2023/24 greenhouse study, we tested 400 rock-soil combos for enhanced weathering. Some worked brilliantly. Others completely flopped. The problem…
Introducing Moritz, the new tenant in our Squirrel Cam House, who has a crippled foot. Last year we built a squirrel house with a camera and put it up on a tree. In spring, a mother moved in with four babies, then moved on five weeks later. Recently one young squirrel has now…
Look at what the co-benefits of rock dust applications in #enhancedweathering projects can do for the farmers: in @viralvora_‘s photo it is clearly visible where rock dust was added!
We are seeing very impactful agronomic benefits in our Zambia deployments. These are side by side plots comparing basalt dust(mati) deployed and control plots. This location had drought like situation and basalt dust(Mati) increased the water holding capacity which made the…
