What scientists say: Article An effective CO2 purification for free atmosphere. Tamara Tulaikova, Svetlana Amirova, Alexandre Michtchenko

MOHIT KUMAR

M.Sc. Junior Research Fellow Indian Space Research Organization· Geosciences Division We s%ll need to understand a lot more about climate change rela%ve to what we do now. So efforts to study climate change at local, regional and global scale should be increased. Then, the topic should be made more popular in a lucid way. It is important for the masses to know how at the individual level what they do impacts the climate as a whole. Simple things done diligently bear the poten%al of change more than an abrupt forced adapta%on.

in press 02/2014; ABSTRACT Here an approach for incorporating the possibility of step by step CO2 purification in local areas of the free atmosphere is proposed. The method is comprised of the two key stages. The first stage is the spraying of alkaline compounds, such as KOH, Na2CO3, etc., inside the cloud via an airplane to increase the pH in cloud medium. The alkaline reagents will increase the solubility of СО2 in water, but rain droplets will then become saturated by atmospheric CO2 during their falling. The second stage is to apply precipitation enhancement for carbon transport from the atmosphere to soil and to ground water. Also, special acoustic devices can be applied in order to accelerate the coalescence of water droplets in cloud.

The current economic system does not support reasonably sustainable ways of living; moreover, popula%on is growing and previously developing countries are using up resources as the "western world" at an ever increasing pace. So no maGer what technological solu%ons we come up with, these will not be system-­‐wide solu%ons. IMO, one key factor to bound climate change as well as deal with limita%ons of energy and resources, we need to change behavior through deciding for new ways we would like to live together as humans, on an economic, social, and finally long term sustainable, environmentally friendly way. Any technological solu%on alone will definitely not solve the problem without a dras%c change in the rules shaping how we live.

TA M A R A V. T U L A I KOVA “Prof. Sachs, you mentioned a developing method of capturing carbon dioxide emissions from power plants and burying them, what do you think about this process, is it feasible for reducing green house emissions' impact? What are other efficient alternatives?” (Question asked by Mauricio Torres in Live Chat with Jeff Sachs on The Age of Sustainable Development.

An effec%ve CO2 purifica%on for free atmosphere. Tamara Tulaikova, Svetlana Amirova, Alexandre Michtchenko Read materials of conferences for human adapta%on to climate change, I know such conference was in Germany 1-­‐2 years ago. The next way in poli%cal regula%on as Kyoto protocol and etc. The next possibility is other technical methods to improve each factory, car, etc. for minimiza%on the greenhouse gases output.


With a warmer planet... The photos in this collage were obtained from the Internet. This is a resource material intended for my college students under the teacher education program. One of their courses, General Education Home Economics and Livelihood Education/ Entrepreneurship, includes the topic ‘Sustainable development of the human well-being.’ Sustainable development has three components - economic, social, and environment. Climate change is one of the issues being addressed by sustainable development. As our planet gets warmer, there will be extreme weather conditions, more flooding, changes in plant cycles and animal migration patterns, rise of sea level, and gradual destruction of corals due to acidification. These changes will also affect peoples’ lives and livelihood activities. Thus, the global community is now finding ways to halt climate change by finding renewable energy sources, collaboration, and through education.
