Tiny Blue Bubbles Designed to Help Save the Planet

A team of engineers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory may have found a way to capture CO2 from power plants, using tiny blue capsules that look like fish eggs.

For decades, scientists and power companies have been working on carbon capture, a technology that catches CO2 from power plants before it goes into the atmosphere. It could be our best chance of taking a bite out of fossil fuel emissions, but right now it's too expensive to implement widely. A team of engineers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory may have found a way to change that, using tiny blue capsules that look like fish eggs.
