High-Level Project Summary
We chose this project to learn and know how we can preserve our environment from harmful gases that lead to many problems, the most important of which is the increase in the proportion of carbon dioxide, which affects the ozone layer and thus on human life. To solve this problem, the team worked on searching for the most important solutions, including: Converting this harmful gas to rocks, increasing the proportion of trees) and there are many solutions other than these two to protect human life.

Detailed Project Description
keen to reduce the concentrations of carbon dioxide In the atmosphere, and we can do this
by planting more trees. The two experts said planting trees has a tremendous ability to
address the climate crisis. According to recent research, 900 million hectares of
tree cover Is.sufficient to store 25 percent of the current carbon pool in the atmosphere.
convert carbon dioxide Into rocks, where the process of carbon mineralization involves
converting carbon dioxide into carbon minerals, by simulating the way shells and limestone
are made naturally. Experts discussed many techniques, including capturing carbon dioxide
from industrial facilities Using bacteria and then using it to produce useful building
materials
.as a by-product.
There are some countries now setting up factories away from residential areas in order not
to reach free emissions of gases to population, but this is not the best solution Because the
Earth is one piece and has one atmosphere,Therefore, the emissions from factories will
spread in the atmosphere, which leads to a rise in temperature, a widening of the ozone
hole and climate change. Therefore, I think that the best solution is to put filters in the areas
of industrial facilities to removes the vapors and gases from the air before it reaches the
atmosphere.
We can also make the Earth more reflective by using techniques that reflect solar energy
(sunlight) back into space and thus conflict with heating the planet, and change the
reflectivity of surfaces such as: The use of dark white roofs can greatly reduce the absorbed
heat and can lead to the cooling of cities and In the framework of this solution, asphalt
roads can be covered with limestone, These methods indirectly reduce greenhouse gas
emissions by reducing the use of air conditioners.
We must also encourage the use of renewable energy in transportation and reduce
the use of vehicles and aircraft that run on gasoline and diesel, through the use of
electric cars or cycling It is advised to limit long-distance travel by planes that
operate on gasoline and diesel, as it is considered one of the fastest sources of
greenhouse gas emissions, which in turn causes climate change Where The plane
releases these emissions into the upper atmosphere, which is the worst place to
release these gases.
Finally, We used (star video) from YouTube to make the video which we explain the situations in it and we put it and the research in an application.
Space Agency Data
NASA has benefited us a lot, as we obtained important information from them in our research and benefited from the events that were presented by NASA and its guide was benefited us alot .
So, thanks, NASA SPACE APPS
Hackathon Journey
And we will tell you about the experience of the members of the team with each other, we were cooperative individuals and love to work hard. We were a cohesive and strong team and worked to provide our best, we were helping each other and each of us had his own experience in his field, but the rest of the team was helping him. And we became a family.
