#23: Algae for CO2 Capture
#23: Algae for CO2 Capture
This is well beyond my scope.
The idea is to genetically modify, selectively breed, or do everything you can to create an algae strand that is a monster in carbon capture. Then seed every water body with it.
This is a radical and risky approach in fighting climate change. The only reason why it is here is because I share the view that this is a time to have every weapon at our disposal.
