Solving Climate Change with Microbes – How the Smallest Creatures on Earth Can Actually Save ItSolving Climate Change with Microbes – How the Smallest Creatures on Earth Can Actually Save It
We live in a period where the basic resources we require for life increase in scarcity, especially resources of energy, thus the race to discover and utilize new energy resources increases in competition. The industrial revolution brought about the accelerated use of fossil fuels for developmental activity and manufacturing of goods globally, and its continued use to this day has resulted in a huge emission of greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming. Being the increasingly concerning conundrum it is, global warming has been a hot potato due to the global climate change that it causes, primarily due to carbon emissions, resulting in elevated levels of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) in the atmosphere. While other greenhouse gases exist, CO2 remains the greatest contributor to global warming, due to its long lifetime in the atmosphere and its constant production as a result of human activity, such as burning fossil fuels for energy.
