High Hopes Lab, an Israeli startup, has joined the fight against climate crisis by developing carbon-capture balloons that it said will become the world’s first affordable, scalable technique of capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Every year, the world’s population emits around 50 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases, primarily through the combustion of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. This is the major contributor to global warming and climate change.
To address the climate crisis, not only the use of fossil fuels needs to be reduced, but carbon dioxide must also be removed from the atmosphere and stored for a long time.
