Researchers find new way to store carbon dioxide absorbed by plants at the bottom of the Black Sea
Researchers have found a new way to store thousands of year's worth of carbon dioxide and prevent it from being released into the atmosphere. Researchers have found a new way to store thousands of years' worth of carbon dioxide and prevent it from being released into the atmosphere, furthering efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions from several sources. Carbon sequestration, or carbon capture, typically involves plucking the carbon out of the atmosphere, compressing it and storing it underground. But Israel-based climate change solutions company Rewind drew inspiration from the natural processes of the earth for an innovative solution on carbon storage, Ram Amar, CEO of Rewind, told ABC News. Biomass with high concentrations of carbon are removed and shipping to the Black Sea for storage.
