The MOST ABUNDANT PROTEIN ON EARTH is probably the one that almost all life depends on.

It makes up ~3% of the mass of every leaf & blade of grass on the planet: a total weight of 10^11 kg.

Let's talk about Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase or 'RuBisCO'.

#Phytoplankton are microscopic organisms that live in water and are a key part of ocean and freshwater ecosystems.

They are also known as microalgae and are the foundation of aquatic food webs, feeding everything from microscopic zooplankton to whales.

Microalgae are 10 to 50 times more efficient than trees in binding CO2. ..equivalent to the CO2-binding capacity of two 10-year-old trees or 200 square meters of lawn. The goal of the liquid tree, however, is not to replace forests but to fill urban pockets where there is no space for planting trees
