Robot dog detects toxic gases at chemical emergencies, giving firefighters real-time hazard data before they enter dangerous ...

Australia’s biggest industrial gas users pump out about 5% of our greenhouse gas emissions. To have any chance of reaching our emissions targets, Australia need to reduce its heavy reliance on fossil ...

The photoacoustic effect has been known for more than 150 years: Gases exposed to light heat up. Pulsing the light generates ...

Climate change is primarily caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gases, or heat-trapping gases, in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases are certain molecules in the air that have the ability to trap ...

Global greenhouse gas emissions are at an all-time high, Earth is accumulating excessive heat and marine heatwaves are ...

The now-closed Fisk Generating Station in Chicago was once a triumph of engineering and considered one of the more efficient coal-fired plants in the country. Now, though, coal-fired plants like this ...

In the pursuit of knowledge, scientist James Dewar engineered an innovative container specifically designed for the ...

Scientists have uncovered new evidence to suggest that Earth is leaking gases from deep inside its mantle—even in regions without any volcanic activity. Led by researchers at The University of ...

If aliens modified a planet in their solar system to make it warmer, we'd be able to tell. A new study identifies the artificial greenhouse gases that would be giveaways of a terraformed planet. If ...

For over a century, scientists have been measuring the effects of greenhouse gases on the temperature of the planet. Earth naturally experiences temperature fluctuations, but data tracing back to the ...

Sewer gas is a byproduct of the breakdown of natural human waste. It comprises a mixture of gases, including hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and more. The hydrogen sulfide in sewer gas is what gives it its ...
