In this episode, Scarlett discovers how trees on land and phytoplankton in our oceans absorb carbon dioxide – and why they need our help to keep doing so. Meanwhile, Jeriah visits carbon capture facility and talks to engineering students about new inventions that help remove carbon from the atmosphere.

This film is one of a six-part series from the Science Museum Group where Scarlett and Jeriah explore how humans will live in the future, and the ways we are working to slow down climate change.
