Most of the initiatives directed at decreasing CO2 emissions from vehicles intuitively focused on the vehicle itself: how it’s built, what fuel it burns, and how efficiently it burns it. In this proposal, we would like to focus on an under appreciated and untapped resource that has a great potential for decreasing carbon dioxide emission from vehicles: Roads. Although chemical absorption of CO2 in building concrete and cement has been explored, the compromised structural integrity of the modified material and its small surface area has prevented widespread implementation. On the other hand, asphalt represents an ideal object for carbon capture innovation.
