Then you are left with the transport sector.
And this wont be easy.
These developers need to offer their investors something valuable in return, and the obvious answer is fuel.
The paper is titled Nanowire-bacteria hybrids for unassisted solar carbon dioxide fixation to value-added chemicals.
The other corresponding authors and leaders of this research are chemists Christopher Chang and Michelle Chang.
Both also hold dual appointments with Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley.
In addition, Chris Chang is a Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) investigator.
The more carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere the warmer the atmosphere becomes.
Im excited about direct air capture.
It could be a really important technology to add to the portfolio.
