CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 8 (UPI) -- Harvard University researchers say an innovative solution for carbon dioxide pollution might be found far beneath the surface of the ocean.
The scientists report finding deep-sea sediments that could provide a virtually unlimited and permanent reservoir for the gas that has been a primary driver of global climate change in recent decades. The scientists estimate seafloor sediments within U.S. territory are vast enough to store the nation's carbon dioxide emissions for thousands of years to come.
