Recycling Carbon Dioxide Emissions Ryan Stoll
Background There is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today than at any point in the last 800,000 years.
Photocatalyst Method Turns CO2 into methane using the power of the sun http://www.mri.psu.edu/news/2009/recycling_greenhouse_gas/
Genetically Modified Bacteria Genetically modified bacteria to eat carbon dioxide and produce isobutyraldehyde, which has potential to be used as an alternative to petrol. http://www.rsc.org/chemistryworld/news/2009/november/15110901.asp
Creation of Construction Materials Converts carbon emissions into bricks for the construction industry
