I can’t wait until they makes these no cost, low-maintenance, and self-replacing. Oh man, just think of how easy it would be to fix our climate issues!

    Currently running an algae farm. First step is water, which holds 8x the gasous CO2 as the air it is exposed to.

      Algae make our oxygen. Biomimicry is the way to go. Or is it bioengineering? Idk

        Genetically modifying algae to be more efficient at photosynthesis would be the way to go. However, I think it was attempted many times in the last 30 years and I have not seen any breakthroughs.

          I think there could be physical solutions to maximising co2 absorption. Like a sort of vertical farming scenario - put up massive algae farms where alot of air naturally moves through.
