Improving methodology for CO<sub>2</sub> fixation in cyanobacteria

This paper explores recent advancements in the absorption of carbon dioxide by cyanobacteria, commonly known as blue-green algae. The escalating severity of climate change is primarily attributed to the rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. As organisms capable of photosynthesis, cyanobacteria can thrive in a wide range of habitats and engage in CO2 fixation. In this review, we examine the ability of cyanobacteria to photosynthesize and their ecological adaptability, as well as explore ways to enhance their effectiveness in managing climate change by refining their carbon dioxide fixation processes. The aim is to find innovative approaches to mitigate climate change. We delve into the mechanisms and strategies that can optimize the efficiency of cyanobacteria in carbon sequestration, including discovering novel species, genetic engineering, and manipulating environmental conditions. By enhancing cyanobacteria’s capacity for CO2 fixation, this research seeks to contribute to global efforts in climate change mitigation and offer new directions for climate governance strategies.
