the atmosphere?” 

“We need to fabricate synthetic trees made up of some kind of chemical
resins that absorb carbon from the atmosphere at much more faster rate 
than the real trees and yet do not grow to occupy more land. 

“You mean some kind of carbon eaters that sap carbon dioxide from air
and chemically bind through some simple reaction for recycling later.” 

“Now you are thinking Juggernaut,” said Prof TT. 

“Shall we call this plant C-Sap plant?” “Is this thought occurred to
anybody yet?” 

“Sure, scientists are working as we speak on this idea of artificial
plants to absorb carbon from the air,”  “just like wind farms, these 
synthetic trees are installed on roadside, on wastelands, on farms and 
on a smaller scale as house plants,” “with a vacuum system installed in 
them, these synthetic small plants to big trees pulls air in and 
chemically bind carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases inside the 
plant,  a simple color change indicates when to replace the plant or 
tree limb that is saturated with carbon.” 

“You mean like changing an air filter in a furnace?” 

“Right,” “the carbon saturated house plants are disposed thru recycling
bins for recovery,” “on a large scale, every so often, the C-Sap tree 
limbs are replaced,  depends on how fast a C-Sap tree limb is saturated 
with carbon.” 

“A synthetic tree capable of absorbing 50 to 100 times or even better
1000 times more carbon dioxide than a fully grown tree in a forest 
would be ideal to sap the carbon from the atmosphere.” 

“True.” “Eventually, we have to reach a point where we trap as much
carbon as we release into the atmosphere through human activities.” 

“You know what,  I have to revisit Hindu mythology to see if this idea
of carbon recycling was already mentioned thousands of years ago,” said 
Juggernaut scratching his head. 

“You do that Juggernaut; didn't you mention that airplanes were used by
Hindu gods? Not to mention wireless communication.” 

“True, true, now I have to dig into Hindu mythology for confirmation on
C-Sap plants,” Juggernaut was in a hurry.
