✨Ciência aberta para todos

New in @nature.com: research led by @idlearth.bsky.social's @joaocduarte.bsky.social shows the ocean floor off Portugal is peeling away into the mantle.

This rare process may explain the 1755 Lisbon M8.7 quake and could mark the initiation of a new subduction zone.

Coauthored by IDL's Alex Koberle, new @nature.com study
study shows Earth’s max safe underground CO₂ storage is ~1,460 Gt, and can only cool the atmosphere <1 °C. Without deep CO₂ cuts, we’ll hit that before 2200.
