Artificial chloroplasts turn sunlight and carbon dioxide into organic compounds

Global Warming (aka as Climate Change) is a hoax! Nothing beats human ingenuity! This process is probably a bit slow and inefficient, but it is only a matter of time and effort to fix that!

This is what I call recycling!

"Photosynthesis is a two-step process. In chloroplasts, chlorophyll molecules absorb sunlight and pass the extra energy to molecular partners that use it to generate the energy-storing chemicals adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). A suite of other enzymes working in a complex cycle then use ATP and NADPH to convert CO2 from the air into glucose and other energy-rich organic molecules that the plant uses to grow."
