China has taken a major step forward in delivering carbon neutrality after launching projects to capture carbon. The projects located on land and at sea will help the country reduce the release of nearly two million tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
As countries look for ways to lower carbon emissions, renewable energy has become the point of focus. Last month, Interesting Engineering reported how China's first desert-based solar and wind energy farm has operated and will power 1.5 million households with cleaner energy.
China has also invested massively in building nuclear power plants to secure non-carbon energy. Yet, its massive power demands require it to continue to use oil and coal in its energy mix. To contain the carbon released from usage, the country has now turned its focus to capturing the carbon released during its production and usage.
