Scientists turned a Canadian harbor pink in preparation of an experiment that will see alkaline material added to the water to store CO2 emissions.
“The ultimate goal here is to test an idea for a technology that would help us reduce atmospheric CO2 and could be one tool in the toolbox for fighting climate change, basically."
The researchers then unleashed a slew of boats, drones and underwater robots to track the dye’s path in order to get a grasp of how materials travel in the harbor.the data from this experiment will be put to use in September when Dartmouth-based company Planetary Technologies will finally add the CO2-storing alkaline material into the water.
