That's saving 3.2 billion tons of carbon
dioxide
emissions, which is the equivalent of taking all American cars off the roads for three whole years.
Astronauts would breathe out carbon dioxide, that carbon
dioxide
would then be captured by the microbes and converted into a nutritious, carbon-rich crop.
The astronauts would then eat that carbon-rich crop and exhale the carbon out in the form of carbon dioxide, which would then be captured by the microbes, to create a nutritious crop, which then would be exhaled in the form of carbon
dioxide
by the astronauts.
We found that we can make essential amino acids from carbon
dioxide
using these microbes.
So when you take your next breath, you'll be breathing in 42 percent more carbon
dioxide
than if you were breathing in 1750.
These molecules then react with airborne oxygen to create carbon
dioxide
and water.
As the fire heats up, the carbon
dioxide
and water vapor created by combustion expand.
And then I got some really dangerous stuff: syringes full of radioactive carbon-14 carbon
dioxide
gas and some high pressure bottles of the stable isotope carbon-13 carbon
dioxide
gas.
I got my giant syringes, and I injected the bags with my tracer isotope carbon
dioxide
gases, first the birch.
And then for fir, I injected the stable isotope carbon-13 carbon
dioxide
gas.
If we can get that into our soil bank, it's going to start to absorb carbon
dioxide
that we put into the air.
In this concrete, even small cracks can channel water, oxygen, and carbon
dioxide
that corrode the steel and lead to disastrous collapse.
The resulting calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon
dioxide
in the air, starting a process called autogenous healing, where microscopic calcium carbonate crystals form and gradually fill the gap.
We exhale carbon dioxide, so does mycelium.
Oxalic acid is two carbon
dioxide
molecules joined together.
So, fungi and mycelium sequester carbon
dioxide
in the form of calcium oxalates.
And all sorts of other oxalates are also sequestering carbon
dioxide
through the minerals that are being formed and taken out of the rock matrix.
That air that you just exhaled, you enriched a hundred times in carbon
dioxide.
So roughly five liters of air per breath, 17 breaths per minute of the 525,600 minutes per year, comes to approximately 45 million liters of air, enriched 100 times in carbon dioxide, just for you.
Eighty-five to 95 percent of species at this time die out, and simultaneous to that is a huge, dramatic spike in carbon dioxide, that a lot of scientists agree comes from a simultaneous eruption of volcanoes and a runaway greenhouse effect.
Its warming potential is 24,000 times that of carbon dioxide, and it has that longevity of 12 to 16 generations.
When sunlight comes in and strikes a photocatalyst, like TiO2, or titanium dioxide, it creates these really reactive oxygen species, like superoxides, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals.
But photocatalysts like titanium
dioxide
are actually commonly used in sunscreens to block UV radiation.
The composite combines titanium
dioxide
with cement.
That represents the total equivalent carbon
dioxide
reduced from the atmosphere when the solution is implemented globally over a 30-year period.
But they were replaced by HFCs, which are hundreds to thousands of times more potent a greenhouse gas than carbon
dioxide.
This is drawdown in action every year, as carbon is removed from the atmosphere through photosynthesis, which converts carbon
dioxide
to plants' biomass and soil organic carbon.
Did you know that the oceans have absorbed 25 percent of all of the carbon
dioxide
that we have emitted to the atmosphere?
Now this is just another great service provided by the oceans since carbon
dioxide
is one of the greenhouse gases that's causing climate change.
But as we keep pumping more and more and more carbon
dioxide
into the atmosphere more is dissolving into the oceans.
