The planet earth is growing less and less accommodative with every year that passes. The reason being, we as the human being do not care about taking care of the Mother Nature and it is striking back. Global warming, rising sea levels catastrophic coast flooding are some of the ways the planet is biting back. No person alive is immune to the effects of climate change. As to this reason every person ought to be accountable to the survival of the planet.
We never seem to get enough from science and technology that is after it has provided us with nice cars to minimize walking distance and a lot of other invention that science has provided. Similarly, because of science and technology life is bearable however the same technology destroys the environment. It is a time the people introduces other ways that will not change our lifestyle but ways that will improve it. This project will demonstrate a minor way in which we can be accountable and at the same time not limiting our lives to ensure that the human and animal species in the planet can survive. Additionally, the project will drive to deem or minimize the amount of excess carbon dioxide released by motor vehicle into the environment. Basically, the project will try to mime the plant's process of photosynthesis whereby it absorbs carbon dioxide from the environment and uses it to make its own food in the process giving out by products of oxygen and water.

Excerpt from the Book
Action Plan
The idea's action plan is to minimize or regulate the amount of carbon dioxide released into the environment by creating an electric gadget that utilizes solar energy or solar cells to split carbon dioxide to oxygen and carbon monoxide rich in energy. The conversion will not in the first prove to fight competition created by the fossil fuel but there is hopes it will create a small effect for the better of the future of creating liquid fuels. The green effect starts with the breaking down of carbon dioxide in two that is oxygen and carbon monoxide. The carbon monoxide produced can be later used to formulating of hydrocarbon fuels by adding four atoms belonging to hydrogen, for instance, methanol. It has also been proven that ethanol can power cars.
The gadget will be made entirely from copper as well as tin oxide. Also it will utilize electric currents from the sun to separate the atoms of water and carbon dioxide resulting to the creation of carbon monoxide and oxygen.
