Pierre Calleja

Pierre Calleja, a French biochemist has invented an impressive streetlight that is powered by algae which absorbs CO2 from the air.

His team has featured algae-powered lamps before but this one takes out 1 ton of CO2 per year. This is as much CO2 as as a tree absorbs on average during its entire life.

He says this is a pretty amazing idea that could really work and clean the air pollution from urban areas like parking lots and at the same time look good.
