A group of Japanese scientists is planning great nets of seaweed (sargassum and Sostera marina) off the coast of Japan. The nets would measure six miles by six miles and would fill with quick-growing seaweed, growing at the rate of 270,000 tonnes a year.
This seawood would absorb vast amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, store the carbon and release the oxygen.
After a year the seaweed would be harvested and used for biomass energy.
Korea is using seaweed to produce bio-diesel.
Both these methods will help reduce the speed of global warming.

∙ 10y agoKelp is seaweed, a plant. All plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, so kelp does that too. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is responsible for global warming, so anything that removes it helps to prevent global warming.

Global Warming isn't hard to explain It leaves Mother Earth crying with excruciating pain. This hurts our planet in every single way The changes could leave us all in sorrow and dismay. We need to stop it now so the temperature doesn't rise People, plants, and animals would be in demise. Changes in temperature due to the greenhouse layer We really don't need it so show us that you care. Mother Nature can't do it all so let's give her a rest. We all need to try and do what is best. Our planet earth is precious and can't be replaced We need to act now or our home will be erased. OR Nature is cool in its own way, Nature is cool in the day, But if global warming happens, It would not be good For our earth and neighborhood. Global warming would make the earth hot, Which would be like a boiling pot. Global warming would harm the earth, Mother nature could not give birth, To animals and plants, Earth would be under a trance. Green plants would lose their fame, Our waters would drain. Our government will try to help, But you and I need to save the kelp. So start playing it smart, And do your part. Life might not end, If you're Earth's friend!
