Sucking CO₂ from the Atmosphere #shorts #SciShow #ClimeworksTeamEarth #climatechange #climeworks

The video discusses the role of trees as natural carbon managers through photosynthesis, which helps reduce carbon emissions by 14% annually in the US. It introduces Direct Air Capture and Storage (DAX) systems as a technological alternative to trees, capable of capturing CO2 and storing it underground. However, DAX requires external energy sources, unlike trees that use sunlight. The video suggests that combining both trees and DAX can effectively address carbon emissions. Climeworks, a company supporting this video, offers solutions for direct CO2 capture and encourages public participation in climate action.
