Can we use salt to lock away carbon for thousands of years?

Preserving ‘carbon crops’ with salt and storing them in dry landfill sites to stop them decomposing could be a low-cost, scalable climate solution, according to physicist Eli Yablonovitch

TOPSHOT - Icebergs float in Disko Bay, Ilulissat, western Greenland, on June 28, 2022. - The icebergs originate from Jakobshavn glacier (Sermeq Kujalleq), the most productive glacier in the Northern Hemisphere. The massive icebergs that detach from the glacier float for years in the waters in front of the fjord before being carried south by ocean currents.

Earth's poles are undergoing simultaneous freakish extreme heat with parts of Antarctica more than 70 degrees (40 degrees Celsius) warmer than average and areas of the Arctic more than 50 degrees (30 degrees Celsius) warmer than average Hot Poles, Nuup Kangerlua Fjord, Greenland

Environment

Arctic and Antarctic see extreme heat and historically low sea ice

Both poles are being warmed by unusually hot air currents, but scientists think the extreme temperatures in Antarctica are a result of natural variability not climate change
