We already knew forests were heavy lifters in reducing climate pollution. New research reveals the tiny microbes in tree bark can also “eat” climate gases.

Organismos enigmáticos chamados arqueias podem obter energia do hidrogênio, e novas pesquisas estão revelando exatamente como fazem isso
Enigmatic organisms called archaea can harvest energy from hydrogen, and new research is revealing exactly how they do it.
The Huc enzyme can split hydrogen molecules to make electricity, raising the possibility of small devices that run on air.
In the deep, dark ocean, sunlight-deprived bacteria turn to different sources of energy: dissolved hydrogen and carbon monoxide.
A billion-year-old ‘hydrogen economy’ in the frozen soil of Antarctica provides bacteria with energy, water, and the carbon that makes up their bodies.
