Hydroponic Carbon Solution
About the Idea
Meet Yosef. Yosef developed a solution to mitigate earth’s rising temperatures by planting hydroponic trees in the ocean.
Why did you enter the 3M Young Scientist Challenge?
I developed a solution that uses a low tech, proven, technology for a big problem. The earth’s climate needs to be saved, and fast! Also, my teacher encouraged me to enter.
What is your favorite invention of the last 100 years, and why?
I would have to say the World Wide Web because it allows anyone in the world who has access to find out about anything.
In 15 years I hope to be...
a Ph.D. student in math or engineering at MIT.
To infinity to the power of infinity!
