I thought ages ago about a passive technology to use solar power to capture carbon dioxide and turn it into solid form.
I realised that I was trying to invent trees.
The problem is trees are such a blight on the landscape. Nobody wants trees popping up all over the place. Not in my backyard!
Imagine the dystopian future when huge areas of land are set aside and blanketed with trees in such density that you can’t even see through them.
My ex, visiting Canada from Japan, once complained that there are too many trees.
I have several of these around me. I call them trees, and plants. They use solar power to convert carbon, water, and minerals, into a solid form, which I call wood.
Ha! Next you’ll tell us these magic machines are nearly free and self-replicating!
lol. They are. It’s truly amazing!
