Plants are the best option for capturing CO2

"They naturally extract CO2 from the air and use it as feed. The more CO2 plants absorb, the less CO2 remains trapped in the atmosphere."
2/6 Image
As plants decompose, CO2
is released back to the air

"If left alone, plants are eaten by other organisms and releasing the carbon back to the carbon cycle within months."
3/6
Anoxic conditions slow decomposition

"In anoxic waters, plants decompose extremely slowly, effectively storing the carbon much longer."
4/6 Image
The Black Sea is the ideal location

"It is the largest anoxic body of water on earth, 2km deep, surrounded by fertile lands. The Black Sea is the optimal environment allowing affordable, environmentally safe, gigaton scale #CarbonRemoval in this decade."

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ—Imagine a world where buildings donโ€™t just house us but actively fight climate change๐Ÿ—๐Ÿšจ

A new study reveals that CO2-storing materials in construction could capture 16.6 billion tonnes of CO2 annually โ€” half of global emissions in 2021!

DETAILS๐Ÿงต1/9 Image
2/ The key lies in re-engineering materials like concrete, asphalt, wood, bricks, and plastics to store carbon. These materials are already used on a massive scale, making them ideal for turning the built environment into a carbon sink.
3/ The carbon-storing materials considered in this work include wood, bio-based plastic (replacing fossil derived materials), carbonateable cement, carbonate-based aggregate, biochar cement filler, portlandite brick, biomass fiber-based brick, and bio-based asphalt bitumen. Image
