Woodworking Network: Upcoming mechanical trees suck carbon dioxide from the air
„Twelve hundred „mechanical trees“ will suck carbon dioxide from the air as part of a joint effort between Arizona State University and Ireland-based Silicon Kingdom Holdings (SKH). The 1,200 carbon-cleansing metal columns, built by Silicon Kingdom to help put a stop to climate change, would allow for the cheap removal of nearly 8,000 cars‘ worth of CO2 emissions per year. The technology was invented by ASU’s Klaus Lackner, who directs the University’s Center for Negative Carbon Emissions.“
