How Algae Can Turn Pollution Into Clean Power

The video discusses an innovative technology by Pond Technologies that uses algae to capture carbon emissions from industrial smokestacks. This process converts carbon dioxide into biofuels and other products, offering a potential solution to reduce greenhouse gases. Despite its promise, the technology faces challenges in commercial adoption. The company is working on proving its scalability, particularly in addressing emissions from Canada's oil sands. The potential impact is significant, with estimates suggesting a 30% offset in diesel use in North America if widely implemented.
