Invention - the synthetic tree that absorbs CO2
by Marshall Brain
Humans are pumping lots of C02 into the atmosphere. What if “synthetic trees” could absorb all of it?
Synthetic trees could purify air
From the article:
If built to scale, according to Dr Lackner, synthetic trees could help clean up an atmosphere grown heavy with carbon dioxide, the most abundant gas produced by humans and implicated in climate warming. He predicts that one synthetic tree could remove 90,000 tonnes of CO2 in a year - the emissions equivalent of 15,000 cars.
This invention absorbs CO2 with limewater, turning it into limestone.
