Friedberg proposes engineered seaweed that sinks to ocean depths could rapidly decarbonize atmosphere using existing technology.
“If we could build an algae or a seaweed from scratch or using some basis and use software to resolve what's the right sort of seaweed to create, That will grow like crazy in the oceans.”
Friedberg proposes engineering seaweed that absorbs carbon and sinks to ocean depths covering 70% of Earth.
“When it gets heavy, sinks to the bottom of the ocean and it literally just pulls carbon out of the atmosphere and drops to these 40,000 foot deep or, you know, 4,000 foot deep kind of wells we have already built around 70% of planet Earth.”
Friedberg proposes engineered seaweed that pulls carbon from atmosphere and sinks to ocean floor as climate solution.
