Climate Change Breakthrough: Iceland Power Plant Captures Carbon Dioxide And Injects It Underground

Carbon dioxide is increasing at a significant rate causing air pollution.

A geothermal power plant in South Iceland known as Hellisheidi Power Station could fight the effects of climate change on Earth. It has a project called “CarbFix” that could capture carbon dioxide from the air and inject it deep in the underground.

Carbon dioxide is a gas that is needed by plants and animals, but too much of this gas on Earth could destroy these living things as well. Carbon dioxide has been increasing at a significant rate and pollutes the atmosphere, and scientists are looking for ways to counteract the emissions of carbon dioxide on the planet. The leap forward now is the world’s first “negative emissions” that could trap carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and bury it in underground rock.
