In the presence of the sun’s rays, nitrogen molecules set of a chain of reactions that produce ozone and destroy free-floating atmospheric methane. Some of these reactions, like the methane destruction, help cool the Earth. During the day, those clouds can reflect sunlight, keeping the Earth cool. Others warm it.

They seek to solve it with a combination of Internet of Things (IoT) and plants, providing clean and cool air to hot urban cities. Examples of those harmful pollutants are nitrous oxides, ozone and particulate matter. Every CityTree reduces local air pollution in a proximity of up to 50 meters, up to 30%.

Servers in data centers need a cool environment, which demands energy. Also, although computers need a cool environment to run, make sure to not keep rooms too cold, which would waste unnecessary power. Also, mining is a significant air pollutant, releasing Ozone and ~4.5Gt of CO 2e each year.

In response, NASA began positioning itself as an environmental authority, publicizing its new satellite technology that monitored the oceans, air pollution, and the ozone layer. In the 1980s, NASA’s satellite data and computer modeling helped scientists track ozone depletion and global warming. NASA / Bill Ingalls.

CFCs and HCFCs are synthetic gases attributed to ozone layer destruction. The brine entails that this secondary fluid is high in salinity, having had salt added to boost its cooling properties. HFCs heighten the greenhouse effect, while carbon dioxide similarly intensifies global warming.

Radiant barriers are installed in homes — usually in attics — primarily to reduce summer heat gain, which helps lower cooling costs. Radiant barriers are more effective in hot climates, especially when cooling air ducts are located in the attic. The reduced heat gain may even allow for a smaller air conditioning system.

Are there opportunities to improve energy efficiency and upgrade lighting, insulation, heating and cooling? Make products that are recyclable, renewable and/or biodegradable, and do not contain toxic or ozone-depleting substances. Can we find ways to recycle or upcycle waste materials (e.g. install recycling bins in the break room)?

These researchers theorized that oxidized hydrogen would cool the stratosphere and make more clouds, adversely affecting the polar vortex and increasing the holes in the ozone layer. But let’s say the production, storage and transportation problems could be overcome and hydrogen’s efficiency safely tapped into.

The hardware test was part of a bigger plan to see if strategically releasing aerosols might help cool the planet by reflecting sunlight. Working from a disused military airstrip in Norfolk, U.K., they would attach a 3,000-foot hose to a helium balloon, pump water into it, and spray the liquid into the atmosphere, where it would evaporate.

Geoengineering is a broad term that can refer to many activities that alter Earth’s natural systems, but it’s typically thrown out to describe controversial schemes to cool the planet.
