In this norden country they\u2019ve just created a power plant that captures the CO2 in the air and turns it into solid minerals which is must needed cause nowadays we can\u2019t just \u201ccontrol\u201d the amount of gas that there\u2019s on earth, but we need to erase it.<\/p>\n<p>The power plant where this tests are being made is located in Hellisheidi and the main intention of this project is that the global temperature won\u2019t raise more than 2 degrees by the end of the century. We need to be pretty aware that nowadays cars and factories (among others) have a huge impact in our planet damaging it and also damaging our life quality, make winters colder and summers warmer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_936\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-936\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2-1024x614.jpg\" alt=\"Turning co2 into mineral\" width=\"1024\" height=\"614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2-1024x614.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2-1050x630.jpg 1050w, https:\/\/www.vacalia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4512-2.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Global Geothermal News \u2013 blogger<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Want more information about how it works?Here you\u2019ll find everything you\u2019ll need to know about this new discovery.
