Batteries — from a Duracell AA all the way to a Tesla lithium-ion battery capable of holding approximately 100 kWh — store energy chemically, and can convert it to usable electricity. Better superconducting materials, then, or ones requiring much less cooling, could bring us closer to fusion reactors that generate net power.

The team developed its own technology to capture the carbon with a filter that includes a solid, non-toxic sorbent material. But many of these technologies and markets are still being developed and there’s more carbon available than there is demand for it. Shane Johnson, co-founder, CEO and president of CarbonQuest.

Washington is a long-time aviation hub and the sector is in pursuit of technologies to meet its carbon reduction goals, with commercial airlines committing to net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, is the quickest near-term climate fix as the cleaner fuel can replace jet fuel in existing planes.

And some of the startups that GeekWire categorized as clean energy are developing technologies that can decarbonize vehicle and airplane fuels as well, so this wedge could arguably be even bigger. The two companies both backed Canada’s CarbonCure , a startup that removes carbon from the atmosphere and chemically traps it in concrete.

It was a source of growing criticism from the press and nonprofit experts as his net worth climbed, topping $100 billion by the end of 2017. It would allow corporations in wealthy countries to buy offsets for their carbon emissions, and that money would go to renewable energy projects in developing countries.

So it wasn't this story that we hear sometimes thrown around about Lightspeed net speed cyberattacks, you know it was human adversaries doing research on the environment, so the attack starts. That's where you know, your water plants come in, that's where your chemicals, your oil and gas, your big manufacturing facilities.
