Computer simulations suggest that CO2 can be stored underground indefinitely
Flow structure. Credit: Geophysical Research Book (2025). doi:10.1029/2025GL114804 If you want to save the climate, you must stop the release of carbon dioxide (CO2). There is no doubt about that. But that’s not enough. Additionally, it needs to be stored permanently by capturing CO2 already present in the atmosphere and sending it deep into the ground, for example. This naturally…

Computer modeling study reveals history of global ice sheet evolution
Inset map shown on the right. Right: The dark blue region shows the extent of the Laurentide Ice Sheet at 18 ka (modified from Dyke (2009)). The red line indicates the approximate location of the 18 ka “hinge line” in eastern North America that separates modern subsidence and uplift.
