Plants and animals have many similarities when it comes to what they need to survive. Both need water and air. We often think of animals using oxygen and glucose for cellular respiration and producing ...

A biochemistry lab on the Tempe campus seeks to speed up the processes of photosynthesis with the hope of someday being able to increase crop yield and decrease world hunger. With growing worldwide ...

The world's fight against global warming would be dramatically easier if a cheap technology was available to turn carbon dioxide into something useful. In fact, researchers and firms are trying to do ...

Marburg-based researcher Tobias Erb wants to remove CO2 from the air by optimizing and accelerating the process of photosynthesis. It could prove to be an important tool in the fight against climate ...

Since the early 2000s, the growing level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has led to an increased rate of photosynthesis around the world, climate scientists have found. Plants produce energy ...
