HEXA-02
High-Level Project Summary
Because of the increasing carbon dioxide and its danger to our planet, and after examining and pointing on its causes, the second most common reason was factories, according to what was mentioned in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we came up with our idea: Putting a detention room for the carbon dioxide in the middle of the factory chimneys and converting it into oxygen, and also working to absorb the carbon dioxide circulating in the air around these factories and converting it into oxygen. about these factories. In the future, we will work on setting rooms similar to this system that absorb carbon dioxide from within countries saturated with carbon dioxide.

Detailed Project Description
Because of the increasing carbon dioxide and its danger to our planet, and after examining and pointing on its causes, the second most common reason was factories, according to what was mentioned in the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we came up with our idea:
Putting a detention room for the carbon dioxide in the middle of the factory chimneys and converting it into oxygen, and also working to absorb the carbon dioxide circulating in the air around these factories and converting it into oxygen. about these factories. And this room is linked to the data of the GES DISC NASA so that it sends notifications to the control center of this room of the presence of carbon dioxide scattered around these factories.
In the future, we will work on
setting rooms similar to this system that absorb carbon dioxide from within countries saturated with carbon dioxide resulting from cars and other fuels, as well as abandons countries that use wood and other solid fuels, such as using raw coal for cooking and heating.
Space Agency Data
-we used NASA's data to detect the carbon dioxide and the orbits to highlight the damages and specify the problem.

-and for the environmental parts, we used the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) website.

-we also used some research papers and the international day of clean air for blue skies website.

Hackathon Journey
it is good for me and my team since we shared our experiences together, however, it was fun and rushy experience but we didn't have time to detail more, we are pretty sure that If we had more time like 2 more hours we will reach our goal,
