Using copper to convert CO₂ to methane could be game changer in mitigating climate change

One major cause of climate change is carbon in the atmosphere. Researchers at McGill University have developed a new catalyst using tiny copper particles, called nanoclusters, to convert CO₂ into methane, a greener energy source. This new method, called electrocatalysis, creates methane without adding more CO2 to the atmosphere, unlike traditional methods. “You can use solar power on sunny days…
