Scientists. Everybody loves them, especially if they are like this:

Politicians definitely love scientists, especially if there research means they don’t have to bother trying to prevent global warming. Here is an idea so crazy, it might just work.

Carbon Capture Trees

Researchers are working on Carbon Capturing Trees, mocked up here lining our motorways, in an attempt to council out car emissions. Some say that a mere 100,000 would remove the same amount of CO2 from the atmosphere as is emitted by all of Britain’s cars, vans and lorry’s every year.

The study, by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, into how technology could prevent climate change offers the trees as an opportunity to give the world more time to find a more permanently solution. The reality is that the worlds resources are running out as it is, so preventing global warming is not the only problem with the CO2 dependant world economy.

So budding scientists out there, this is a step forward, but not a permanent solution. We still face the inevitable global warming, water and food shortages, running out of oil. Make something that will fix it! Please…

And what does a guy have to do to get a bloody hover-board already!?
