In Norway, they came up with a road surface that absorbs carbon dioxide

May 20, 2022

Carbon Crusher has developed an environmentally friendly road surface made from biomaterials. It absorbs CO₂ and reduces the carbon footprint of trail repairs. The Norwegians replaced the bitumen with the organic polymer lignin. It remains as waste after paper production. When using this technology, 3.5 times less carbon is emitted into the atmosphere in a section of 30 meters than usual.
