\"\"Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a heat-trapping greenhouse gas that affects the surface temperatures on Earth. Continually rising levels of CO2 in the atmosphere are contributing to widespread global warming and climate change. By capturing and storing the CO2, we can reduce and prevent it from accumulating in our atmosphere, thus slowing global warming. The 2022\u00a0FIRST<\/em> Global Challenge introduced a key concept to limiting the negative effects of climate change on our planet and challenged\u00a0FIRST\u00a0<\/em>Global teams to reimagine the future of Earth’s climate through carbon capture and storage processes.<\/p>\n

For the sixth edition of the FIRST<\/em> Global Challenge, teams gathered together at the Palexpo Conference and Exhibition to compete under this theme in the game titled “Carbon Capture.” In this game, teams learned about the impact of CO2 on our environment and the technologies being developed and already in place to ensure the safety of our planet through the future. With\u00a0the tagline \u201cOne planet, one alliance,\u201d the Challenge embodied\u00a0how, just as we are all inhabitants of Earth and affected by climate change, we should be one alliance united in combatting it for the wellbeing of all.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>
