Limit climate change with artificial forests

Recently, mechanical engineers have come up with the idea of ​​"artificial forest", CO 2 absorption technology, an ideal solution to solve the problem of climate change for the future.

The idea was given by engineers at the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), United Kingdom."Artificial forest" functions to absorb carbon dioxide as a true natural forest.

The "tree " here is essentially metal plates made from container shells designed to absorb, store, and even turn CO 2 into useful products thanks to the special chemical process and marine foams. function as algae in nature.

While global greenhouse gas emissions are continuing to grow at a dizzying rate, the "artificial forest" technology that absorbs carbon dioxide in the air is seen as a necessary effort to limit climate change. .

Christiana Figueres, head of the UN Climate Change Committee, recently said that the world needs to focus on choosing "artificial forests" to avoid the worst effects of global warming.

Tim Fox, IMechE's Energy and Environment Director, said " artificial forest technology has existed but is only at an early stage of development" and he is also calling for more funding for research and development. into reality.
