BioBeyond Designer Planet Questions and
Answers| Latest Update
Do you think this would be a good idea? Why or why not? I think humans are doing
enough to hurt the Earth's atmosphere. However with more studies I think it could be worth a
shot.
What would be the impact on Earth's climate of reducing the brightness of the Sun? Less
energy would arrive at Earth, and the overall temperature would drop
Do you think this would be a good idea? Why or why not? Once again, I think Humans
changing anything that isn't natural is not right. It is impossible to change the brightness of the
sun.
If carbon dioxide is behind the warming trend, why not just remove carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere? What effect might this idea have on Earth's climate? Carbon dioxide
concentrations and temperatures would drop slowly
Do you think this is a good idea? Why or why not? Certain plants need carbon dioxide to
be able to produce oxygen. Without carbon dioxide completely there would be an imbalance in
the ecosystem.
Think back to your experiences with photosynthesis - what is a benefit to humans that might
come from biomass absorption of carbon dioxide that wouldn't come from factories liquifying
and storing it? Select all that apply. Some of the biomass might be able to be eaten or
turned into fuel
