Solutions to overload of carbondioxide in the atmospheresteemCreated with Sketch.

It's a problem anyone has heard about: Climate Change as a result of greenhouse gases. These gases, like carbondioxide, trap heat on our planet. This is causing multiple larger problems, which I'm not going to talk about in this post, as there's already too much information about it on the internet.. If you're curious on what its effects are, please just google it.

I will devote this article to possible solutions that could solve the problem for once and for all. Although not everything seems very feasible, they are possible solutions.

  1. The first method isn't very hard to implement, not too expensive and anyone can help doing it: Planting plants/trees.
    Plants got the amazing ability to reduce CO2 and produce O2 (oxygen, which we breath). If you plant a tree, you thereby reduce some CO2 and produce some O2.

For instance, India has recently broken a record by planting 66 million trees in an hour. That's ofcourse an insane amount in comparison with the 3 trees that fit in your garden, but if you plant trees, it could easily start a chain effect, causing others to plant trees aswell. That could result in millions of people planting trees. If you want an even bigger result, you can join groups to help with reforestation projects.

  1. Push the CO2 out: We can push the CO2 outof our atmosphere. This sounds hard.. And yeah, it is hard. Not sure how we can do this right now, but perhaps.. Perhaps we will be able to do it easily in the future!

  2. Start a nuclear winter. We could just setup some survival vaults like in Fallout 4. Then we can just throw all the nuclear bombs we got on everywhere and start a nuclear winter. This nuclear winter will just reset everything. After everything is reset, we can start over, like we had never emitted a lot of CO2 :)

Maybe not everyone would like this, as it means death to many, but it could help our planet. The Meteorite that fell down 65 million years ago, made our ancesters able to exist and evolve into us... Humanity! So who knows, maybe we'll have a better kind of human then.. The next stage of evolution! Maybe a species that is actually able to populate the planet without screwing up?

So these 3 methods are only to reduce carbondioxide. There are ofcourse a lot of methods to reduce carbon emissions, but this is meant specifically to reduce the amount of carbondioxide that's already in the atmosphere.

Currently, I think the first method is probably the most feasible. The second method is not very easily done yet and the third one is a last way out. If you want to help reduce the amount of carbondioxide in the air, simply plant some trees/plants, drive less and isolate your house well.
