But technological constraints make scaling up these kinds of systems difficult says Schipper. Bestpractices to select top strains to cultivate them at large scale including maximising the amount of CO that is absorbed and then to harvest the biomass are challenging and vary drastically between strains and locations.  already started implementing systems to capture CO using microbes. In the US LanzaTech uses bacteria to convert CO into aviation fuels and chemicals used in products ranging from laundry detergents to perfumes.

UK company CyanoCapture is using cyanobacteria to produce biological oils and biomass. Medicinal microbes Microbes could also have a multitude of other environmental benefits besides their carbon Mobile App Development Service capture potential. According to a recent Canadian study for example they could help revive dying honeybee populations. Pollinator populations are steadily declining worldwide and the US saw its highest ever yearly loss rate for honey bee colonies between  and .



Read more Can we save the bees that feed the world Microbiologist Brendan Daisley from the University of Guelph in Canada set out to combat this insect apocalypse by developing probiotics that boost the health of bees. Just like humans bees have a microbiome and a healthy balance of microbes in their gut is essential for their overall health. Studies show that pesticides and antibiotics are harming the microbiota of bees impacting their health.
