It might look cool.

So why not do it?

You know, what some companies are doing, like algae is really efficient at sucking up CO2 and giving off oxygen.

So some companies-

algae they're they're selling these these big tubes of algae that you feed so you have i don't know if that looks as cool as a snake plant but to me it's kind of yeah it's it's a nice talking point at dinner parties yeah it's super interesting algae i mean that's what happens the the ocean is is the world's lungs right that's that's where we get what half of our oxygen i think it's even more than that is from from the ocean from algae yes yes wow i didn't know that at all

Isn't that funny, though, if you look at that, they're just mimicking leaves of a large tree, of a large plant, you know?

It's an artificial plant, which is cool.

But you can't, you know, to charge an airport 20 grand for that thing or for 200 for plants.

No one's making a lot of cash from that.

They use that to make biodiesel.

You can run that oil that they extract from that in a diesel car.

I have a 40-year-old Mercedes old 300D that you can run it off of vegetable oil, used vegetable oil.

No way.

Yes.

I've been doing this for years.

It's a real thing.

So they have a twofer right there.

They're removing CO2, making new oxygen, and they're also creating fuel.

Mm-hmm.

I believe it's algae.
