Summary

A new method of carbon capture that would turn carbon dioxide from the ocean into rocks. Mosquitos beefed up with virus-fighting bacteria have proven even more effective at preventing dengue fever than expected. And the often forgotten history of a turn of the century scientist way ahead of his time and his groundbreaking gender and sexuality clinic that was destroyed by the Nazis.

from the news today. About a quarter of every ton of carbon dioxide released into the air ends up absorbed by the ocean.

1:13.5

The excess carbon dioxide is acidifying the water and destroying some marine life.

1:18.7

We know that we need to not only reduce carbon emissions, but also figure out efficient methods

of carbon capture, basically pulling the carbon dioxide out of the environment.

1:29.1

But according to Smithsonian Magazine, the most popular methods of pulling the CO2 out of the air

1:33.8

have been super expensive and not quite worked at a scale required to make a difference.

1:39.5

But there's another way. Capturing carbon from the ocean. Carbon is much more highly concentrated in the ocean,

making it easier to capture, and large bodies of water can hold more than 150 times the amount of CO2 as air.

And now, Garav Sont, a civil and environmental engineering professor at UCLA and his team have developed a prototype
