The microbes were found in the Amazonian peatlands of Peru and could be valuable for sequestering carbon in the damp soils.

Complex organisms, thousands of times smaller than a grain of sand, can shape massive ecosystems and influence the fate of Earth's climate, according to a new study.

The additions made Amazon the largest corporate purchaser of renewable power, according to BloombergNEF. The company’s total portfolio is split roughly evenly between utility-scale wind and solar farms and on-site solar power projects. In total, it’s enough to power 8.3 million homes, Amazon said.

Scientists discovered microbes in Amazon peatlands that control carbon storage. If peatlands stay stable, they store carbon.

Some industry observers told ABC News that the ostensible softening toward Trump by big-tech corporations reflects a new business landscape that is both heavily influenced by the president-elect and increasingly defined by the development of energy-intensive artificial intelligence products.

With legislation such as the EU's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) now in force, customers and resellers alike are expecting more detailed carbon emissions reporting across all three Scopes from suppliers and vendors, according to Canalys.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is backing a pioneering Manchester project involving a "super species" of moss that researchers say could be the answer in the fight against climate change.

Companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon are building large data centers in Indiana for AI. Each one requires power 24/7 and a lot of it. But Indiana utilities werent anticipating this when they made plans to get more power from sources like wind and solar.

By simulating the future atmosphere, scientists hope to understand whether trees will continue to act as the lungs of the planet.

Regulators are weighing whether diverting power to high-paying customers will leave enough for others, and if it's fair to allow them to avoid paying for the grid.

The Frozen Ground Under Threat Permafrost is like Earth's ancient freezer, stretching over vast regions, mainly near the North and South Poles. It holds soil, rocks, and sub-zero water, remaining frozen for two years or more.
