    This video explains about how to transform the chemical industry, to prevent the climate impacts of climate change, we must remove carbon from everything we do and everything that surrounds us. This includes things like oil, natural gas, to clean electricity sources. The technology to do some of these things already exists, but there are still many economies that must be decarbonized whose technology we do not yet have. This includes things like the manufacturing process used to make everything around us. It is my opinion after seeing the video that nowadays chemicals are very dangerous, therefore we have to break down using chemicals in our daily lives. Because the chemical will take the next 30 years to decompose or decarbonize.

    First of all, very nice video and thanks for bringing up such an important topic!
    I have never considered electrochemical reactions as a solution to decarbonize the chemical industrie. Great research you guys are doing, keep it up!
    I would be very interested in your opinion on electrical steam crackers as BASF is working on. The advantage obviously is that there is only one process to be optimized and in the next step you can continue to use steam for your production. Do you think that electrochemical reactions will become more efficient (in an economic way) than this technology?

    We may also consider expanding our use of biocatalysis since enzyme design is becoming increasingly accessible and versatile.

    I believe we do know that fundamentally the wave-particle duality is not binary, as an exciton can be 'bound' to a photon, and based on how this is done you can tune the resultant quasi-particle to act in a way that is partially wave-like and partially particle-like in different ratios. This has been used to test the properties of different 2D materials especially ones with properties similar to topological insulators.

    The chemical industry needs to develop chemical manufacturing processes the produce less hazardous toxic waste (gases and liquids) which now have to be incinerated using fossil fuels and the combustion products further treated. The waste heat produced is generally not recovered either. These waste incineration processes create CO2 adding to the greenhouse gas problem causing global warming. The reason the chemical industry incinerates toxic waste is based entirely on economics - it is the cheapest solution.

    There's too many people on this planet to both save it and satisfy the individual aspirations of everyone. At most, maybe 25% of the worlds population is sustainable given the current standards of "Western" life. Thus read between the lines for what the means for the other 75% of you...

      This isn't true.

      We could support 30billion people living more than a western life style and re Green the entire world in the process.

      We can comfortably support more than 10 times the current world population while reducing land use by half.
      The vast majority of land is currently used to grow food.
      If we can eliminate that with off shore renewables and vertical food production we can increase population by at least a factor of 10 and re-green the world and perhaps even increase the size of large wild habitats like the amazon 2 times (by using off-shore renewables to desalinate ocean water and pump it to currently dry arid habitats)
      You're fear (and the fear of people like you) is the real problem. If there is any issue we face at the moment its underpopulation. Birth rates are declining like crazy, if we don't meet replacement rate in births, society will collapse. Societal Complexity is a function of population size. Its no coincidence that global economic growth and population growth peeked around the same time.

    I recently developed a machine thay stores live Beehives on my farm here in Florida. The Bees wpuldnt keep up with supply n demand so I turn machine on and what it does is shake the Beehives like a Paint Can Shaker. I have a remote so I can see the honey bees from a distance get so Mad but doing this results in MORE HONEY then normal. I have it patented so dont try and steel my idea
