As the world warms up, it's becoming increasingly obvious that we can't just keep belching all our carbon dioxide out into the atmosphere. Scientists are searching for ways to pluck it out of the air and stash it underground, store it in concrete, turn it into carbon nanofibers or even make fuel out of it. Now researchers at MIT have found another way to reuse this unwanted element - build lithium-carbon dioxide batteries.

His comments came after reports that Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, discussed wearing a wire and recruiting cabinet members to invoke the 25th amendment in the days following the firing of James Comey, the FBI director. The 25th amendment allows for the removal of the president from office if he or she was deemed unfit to carry out duties. In a thinly-veiled attack raising further questions over whether Mr Trump would fire Mr Rosenstein, Mr Pompeo suggested that White House officials should find "something else to do" if they do not support President Trump's agenda. "I've been pretty clear since my beginning of service here in this administration, if you can't be on the team, if you're not supporting this mission, then maybe you ought to find something else to do," he said. Mr Rosenstein is overseeing the Mueller investigation after Jeff Sessions, left, recused himself from the investigation Credit: SAUL LOEB/ AFP "I've told that to my senior colleagues, I've told it to junior folks at the CIA, and the State Department; we need everyone who's engaged in helping achieve President Trump's mission.

Since that time the OS has grown from buggy, nerdy iPhone alternative to arguably the most popular (or at least populous) computing platform in the world. But it sure as heck didn't get there without hitting a few bumps […]

Expectation is high and #AppleEvent is trending on Twitter, so you know it's September 12 when Apple is expected to introduce new iPhones, Apple Watch, iPads and possibly a few more goodies. I thought it might be good to flag up a few enterprise-focused things to watch for.
What we think we know
We've provided cut-out-and-keep guides to some of the latest speculation here, here and here, and I'll be attempting a live feed over here (I'm using a new tool to do so and wanted to test it somewhere first).
