A microalgae lamp that absorbs CO2!

This microalgae lamp absorbs 150 times more CO2 than a tree!

Wow, this concept has the potential to be awesome, in the true sense of the word. Earth changing. If these lights were everywhere it would have a great effect on CO2 levels.

If the figures are correct then roughly every five of these lights in use would counter the CO2 emissions annually by one car based on average mileage. However that green glow, while environmentally symbolic, would put an eery feel over everything and probably dampen a lot of people's moods. Something would need to be done about that :)

Shamengo pioneer Pierre Calleja has invented something truly remarkable--a light powered by algae that absorbs CO2 in the air--at the rate of 1 ton PER YEAR, or what a tree absorbs over its entire lifetime! The microalgae streetlamp has the potential to provide significantly cleaner air in urban areas and revolutionize the cityscape.
