Floating factories of artificial leaves could make green fuel for jets and ships
Automated floating factories that manufacture green versions of petrol or diesel could soon be in operation thanks to pioneering work at the University of Cambridge. The revolutionary system would produce a net-zero fuel that would burn without creating fossil-derived emissions of carbon dioxide, say researchers.
The Cambridge project is based on a floating artificial leaf which has been developed at the university and which can turn sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into synthetic fuel. The group believe these thin, flexible devices could one day be exploited on a industrial scale.

This is an interesting development in the field of sustainable energy. The idea of floating factories producing green fuel from artificial leaves has the potential to greatly reduce carbon emissions from the aviation and shipping industries. However, it remains to be seen how feasible and cost-effective this technology will be in practice. Nonetheless, it is a step in the right direction towards a more sustainable future.

@johnte_ndeto we must go green!!This is impressive,green fuel for jets and ship will reduce the amount of emissions in the air.
