New Rooftop CO2 Ventilators Funnel Fumes into Fertilizer that Makes Spinach Grow 4x Bigger in Roof Gardens​

“New carbon dioxide ventilators could turn fumes into fertilizer to bring vegetable patches to high rise rooftops, suggests a new study.
It wasn’t just suggested, the study included an experiment that found spinach by the new air vents grew four-times larger than the other plants.
The breakthrough is a promising development for healthier city life, say scientists.
Scientists at Boston University created new technology that turned carbon dioxide (CO2) pumped from building air vents into fertilizer to improve the challenging plant-growing conditions for rooftop plant-life.
Rooftop vegetable gardens—big ones even—can be found in cities around the world, but they’re mostly hydroponic systems, receiving nutrients and water via a special mist channeled through tubes.
Rooftop farms and gardens are often suggested as ways to improve air quality, but conditions are difficult. Plants are often smaller and less healthy because the sites catch more solar radiation, wind exposure, and the soil is less moist.
The researchers decided to intercede by repurposing the CO2 emitted from building exhaust into a fertilizer.”

World’s Biggest Rooftop Greenhouse in Montreal is as Big as 3 Football Fields – Now Can Feed 2% of the City​

“Rooftop gardening is becoming very popular as a means of getting high-quality produce into the hearts of the world’s great cities, a method that has the double-advantage of cutting back on tailpipe emissions and spoilage from the otherwise necessary transportation of food.
Launched in 2009, Lufa Farms now has four such rooftop gardens. The latest addition, built atop their own distribution center of 160,000 square feet (15,000 square meters), is about the size of three football fields, and cultivates 100 different varieties of fruits and vegetables using hydroponics.
Looking like something out of a Star Trek episode, hydroponic gardens utilize pipes in which the roots of the plant can dangle freely, and where a steam bathes them in essential nutrients and water—eliminating the need for soil entirely."

“The advantage of being on a roof is that you recover a lot of energy from the bottom of the building,” he adds, noting that they can save a significant amount on heating during the notoriously cold Quebec winters.
Savings can also be found in the water-use department where Lufa Farms has a rainwater collection system that reduces time spent running taps by 90%, while ladybugs, wasps, and bumblebees work in tandem as both pollinators and pest control.”

Always get me about the climate change/global warming cabal - humans/animals exhale CO2 plants take in CO2 and give off Oxygen( O2) - Carbon dioxide is a gas. The density of a gas increases as temperatures get colder. So, because temperatures decrease as we reach higher altitudes, gases become denser at higher altitudes. Denser objects generally sink, pulled down by gravity. (In fact, the force of gravity pulling gas molecules towards the Earth’s surface is what maintains our atmosphere.) Different gases also have different molecular weights. Carbon Dioxide has a specific gravity of 1.52. It is about one and a half times heavier than air. So CO2 is heavier than Oxygen(O2), so we expect every CO2 molecule to sink below a layer of oxygen molecules. Thereby the affect of carbon dioxide on the temperature of our atmosphere is fleeting and inconsequential. If anything the atmosphere is more subject to change by the Sun - cosmic rays, solar flares, etc

Gen 8:22 “While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, And cold and heat, And summer and winter, And day and night Shall not cease.”

that is until the End of Days when

Rev 16:8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun, and it was given to it to scorch men with fire.
Rev 16:9 Men were scorched with fierce heat; and they blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues, and they did not repent so as to give Him glory. (NASB)
