đđ Oceanâs hidden CO2 hero! Scientists discover massive lava rubble beneath the South Atlantic acts as a giant sponge, trapping billions of tons of carbon for 50M+ years. A game-changer for climate models & Earthâs carbon cycle! Read more: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251211100631.htm

Researchers found that eroded lava rubble beneath the South Atlantic can trap enormous amounts of CO2 for tens of millions of years. These porous breccia deposits store far more carbon than previously sampled ocean crust. The discovery reshapes how scientists view the long-term balance of carbon between the ocean, rocks, and atmosphere. It also reveals a hidden mechanism that helps stabilize Earthâs climate over geological timescales.
This is an amazing #ClimateWin for #Forests. #Montana
>> âUltimately, removing carbon from forests in the form of logging, even if the trees are going to grow back, will take decades to centuries to re-sequester. Put more simply, logging causes immediate carbon losses, while re-sequestration happens slowly over time, time that the planet may not have,â [Federal Judge] Molloy wrote.<<
Pointing to evidence that land managers failed to adequately consider the impacts of a 95,000-acre logging project both to global climate change and an isolated population of grizzly bears in northwest Montana, a federal judge on Thursday halted the Black Ram logging project in the Yaak Valley north of Troy. The sprawling logging project has [âŠ]
Lower courts said, âNope,â and the cases remained in local courts. So the oil companies appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, and SCOTUS said, âNaw, we donât need to hear this case,â and the lower court rulings stand.
This is BIG. âSeismicâ is the word Bill uses. Heâs right. He goes into much deeper detail, and I encourage you to read all he says about this #ClimateWin! https://billmckibben.substack.com/p/a-seismic-win-went-almost-unnoticed
