All-Purpose Algae
Algae need carbon dioxide to live and we need to get rid of carbon dioxide to live. It’s a win-win partnership.
Carbon dioxide is food for algae. Growing algae removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Algae can even grow in some pretty strange places. It can actually grow on smoke stacks! Before the smoke is emitted from the smoke stack, the algae soaks up some of the carbon dioxide like a sponge would soak up water.
And what’s really cool…
The carbon-eating algae can be harvested and used as fuel, biofuel that is.
