'Exciting' discovery of material that can store greenhouse gases faster than trees
Scientists have hailed the "exciting" discovery of a type of porous material that can store carbon dioxide. The material is made up of hollow cage-like molecules that have high storage capabilities for greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and sulphur hexafluoride - a more potent gas that can last thousands of years in the atmosphere. Dr Mark Little, who jointly led the research at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, said the discovery has the potential to "help solve society's biggest challenges".
