So. What are you going to do when it shows you levels of CO2 too high? Opening a can of Perry Air, search for https://duckduckgo.com/?q=air+quality+improvement+with+plants https://duckduckgo.com/?q=air+quality+improvement+with+plant... , or what? Using it as an indicator of when to finally move elsewhere?

    How is that helping when the outdoor CO2-levels are elevated too much? (Unter Schmutzatmosphäre verkackt! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packaging_gas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packaging_gas)

      It still takes time for outdoor normal co2 level to reach those levels. We gain 2 co2 per year. And you can have an indoor garden

  Plants + grow lamps. Get something easy to grow quickly indoors, say some random type of weed, and start letting it absorbing co2.

    Open a window. Those grow lamps use energy and might contribute to the problem, depending on where you live.

      The reason energy use is a problem is the electricity production.
      - MayeulC 6y ago
        And electricity production might not be that carbon-intensive depending on the place, hence "depending on where you live" :)

    I feel like I have to combust some random type of weed to that, indoors even! :-)
    - sandworm101 6y ago
      Burning it back into CO2 is certainly more environmentally friendly than dumping it to decompose into methane.
      - LargoLasskhyfv 6y ago
        Excellent reasoning. I need to remember that one.

        You could capture and consume the methane as part of your home's energy cycle.
      - jeffbee 6y ago
        But composting both avoids methane production and sequesters carbon.
