- Solutions for removing dangerous greenhouse gases from our planet
We all know that the world is strongly affected by climate change, such as littering, deforestation and, last but not least, greenhouse gas pollution. Greenhouse gases are the main reason why our planet is rapidly starting to get warmer with each passing day. Greenhouse gases can involve, for example, methane, ozone, and of course CO2. But the main focus for the world today is the greenhouse gas CO2, and since 2015, CO2 emissions in the world have risen to 42 billion tonnes. For example, per Norwegian household, we have managed to pollute 22.3 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere. So how can we really reduce these greenhouse gas pollutants? One possibility is, of course, to reduce its carbon footprint by using more renewable energy, using less fuel, and buying less disposable products. But there are even better solutions. In recent years, there has been a lot of talk about biological engineering, and how it can affect our nature in a good way. The solution that can greatly affect the world's greenhouse gases is called a "carbon capture machine". Such technology works by filtering carbon from the inside of a large propeller-like catcher. The carbon is eventually filtered as clean air, which is safe for us humans to breathe in, and all the carbon is stored safely before it arrives in the atmosphere. The carbon can even be used to make products, such as mattresses, socks and more. This has already been tested by the German company, Covestro. But what if your home country had started with this, we can even help the world to reduce carbon emissions, which also lowers the number of natural disasters in the world. World leaders should start investing more in carbon capture machinery, so we can earn a large share of profits from products made from the carbon itself.
