MIT researchers say they have found a potent new tool in the fight against #globalwarming . It is basically cat litter.
Their findings could greatly reduce the amount of methane in the atmosphere and slow warming temperatures on the planet. The discovery could also create another use for zeolite, a clay used to clean up some of the world’s worst messes, from driveway oil spills to the 2011 meltdown at Japan’s Fukushima nuclear power plant. Zeolite’s magic is in its tiny pores, which enable it to function as a filter or a sponge, depending on the chemistry. Zeolite is widely available in the U.S., typically costing $50-300/ton. Keeping methane from the atmosphere could be its biggest job yet.
