The main consequence of the industrial revolution is the improvement of quality of life. Another important consequence of this revolution is the dramatic impact of the industry on the environment. For centuries people believed that our environment is too large compare to our actions; that our pollutions will never cause significant change in our surroundings. Vast amounts of fossil fuels, formed over millions of years, were burned during the past two hundred years in order to generate energy. Fossil fuel combustion created large amounts of harmful greenhouse gasses. The most abundant of which is carbon dioxide (CO2). Scientific evidence demonstrates that currently our civilization is standing on the threshold of a human-caused irreversible environmental crisis. In order to prevent or to relieve the possible consequences of this crisis we must develop a technology that is capable of efficient removal of greenhouse gases for industrial emissions and from the atmosphere. One of the ways of natural CO2 sequestration is by means of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process during which inorganic CO2, using the energy of sunlight, is converted into high energy organic compounds. This process i
