The creationist argument against radiocarbon dating: why do so many ancient fossils test young according to carbon dating?

It’s a common argument made by creationists refuting radioisotope dating. There are dozens, perhaps hundreds, of examples of fossils that are millions of years old, even a hundred million years old, that radiocarbon dating shows are only a few thousand years old? How does a geologist explain t...

Grass and Fungi, Carbon Warriors

The beauty of trees is partly why, whenever we talk about building carbon sinks, we focus on them. Trees are the forms of natural CO2-capture that we can see — that we admire. The idea of reforesting the planet makes immediate sense. As does fiercely protecting the old-growth we’ve go...

A Carbon-Lite Atmosphere

The search for extraterrestrial life has captivated the human imagination for centuries, driving scientists to explore distant planets in our quest to understand the universe. One intriguing avenue of investigation is the study of a planet’s atmosphere, as it can reveal crucial information abo...

Carbon dating is not an app for old people wanting to hook up

Back in the present day, Aboriginal artifacts have been found in archeological diggings at rock escarpment shelters, and river and coastal settlement sites which have long been repeatedly and often continuously inhabited. These artifacts range from large stone tools, to finely worked stone and bone ...

This is why COP28 & the UN are *almost* irrelevant to carbon neutral

COP28 bowed to pressure from OPEC who requested OPEC nations ‘proactively reject’ targeting fossil fuels. These OPEC nations are hugely rich and have plenty of time and resources to switch to solar-wind and make money from it too. If you want to see a prosperous, carbon neutral future...

A Carbon-Neutral Plan to Air Condition the World

I live in a temperate climate and used my Air Conditioner only ten days in the past year. Five of those days were hot enough to kill. Even in down-right cold areas, Air Conditioners (ACs) still greatly improve quality of life. Over the past few years, there have been several p...

The carbon footprint of GPT-4

Let’s first estimate GPT-4's energy consumption. According to unverified information leaks, GPT-4 was trained on about 25,000 Nvidia A100 GPUs for 90–100 days [2]. Let’s assume the GPUs were installed in Nvidia HGX servers which can host 8 GPUs each, meaning 25,000 / 8 = 3,1...

Carbon Emissions of an ML Engineering Team

Everybody is aware of the climate crisis due to global warming as a result of human activities. To prevent its catastrophic consequences [1], the world needs to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions drastically, with many countries setting a target of net zero emissions by 2050. The technology boom...

Elon Musk-Backed Carbon Capture Technology Really Could Save The World

Carbon capture is one of the most promising pieces of climate technology out there. If used correctly, it has the potential to not only halt climate change, but turn back time and repair the damage we have done. The only problem is most carbon capture systems are insanely expensive and practically i...
