The Earth is warming up at an increasing rate. A contributing factor is carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, prompting researchers to investigate methods to reduce levels. In her dissertation at the University of Bremen, Dr. Alexandra Klemme discovered that the “enhanced weathering” strategy—which, until now, has been considered a promising method—is not suitable for removing CO2 from tropical peat soils. The research findings have now appeared in Communications Earth & Environment.
