Oceans could suck up excess CO2 and slow climate change
Human activities release CO2, causing climate change. To combat this, scientists are exploring ways to capture and convert CO2 from ocean water through mineral carbonation. By increasing the ocean's ability to absorb CO2 using materials like rocks and metal compounds, we can enhance the ocean's natural carbon storage capacity. This method could help reduce CO2 levels in the atmosphere and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
