There are several reasons for distributing the LUMOBAGs in desert areas:

1. The solar radiation reaches the highest values there, so the largest amount of energy can be reflected.

2. The use of agricultural land is not affected.

3. Due to the low biodiversity and the even distribution of species, the environmental impact can be minimized.

The LumoBag system is very flexible and can be used in all types of landscape. In all cases, a control and care system is part of the concept to ensure the highest possible level of reflection. This will mainly be done by solar-powered automated cleaning systems, such as those already used in the maintenance of photovoltaic systems.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=“Why aluminum?

Aluminum is readily available and fully recyclable. Therefore, aluminum is the ideal material to achieve a degree of reflection of more than 95%. Due to the thin aluminum coating, the Lumobag project manages with small quantities. In this way, several square kilometers of reflective surface can be created from the amount of aluminum that is installed in a large SUV.[/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=“Why aren’t photovoltaic systems built instead?“ open_toggle_text_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ open_toggle_background_color=“gcid-c79bb9b2-e068-4451-82bf-90e4c29d272a“ closed_toggle_text_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ closed_toggle_background_color=“gcid-c79bb9b2-e068-4451-82bf-90e4c29d272a“ icon_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ open_icon_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ _builder_version=“4.17.4″ _module_preset=“default“ title_text_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ title_level=“h4″ title_font=“|700|||||||“ body_text_color=“gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055″ body_font_size=“16px“ width=“91%“ module_alignment=“center“ custom_padding=“||||false|false“ hover_enabled=“0″ border_width_all=“0px“ global_colors_info=“{%22gcid-c79bb9b2-e068-4451-82bf-90e4c29d272a%22:%91%22open_toggle_background_color%22,%22closed_toggle_background_color%22%93,%22gcid-287bdaff-f5c8-4ae7-9174-b72d6b300055%22:%91%22icon_color%22,%22open_toggle_text_color%22,%22title_text_color%22,%22closed_toggle_text_color%22,%22body_text_color%22,%22open_icon_color%22%93}“ sticky_enabled=“0″]Photovoltaic systems have a completely different function – they are used to produce electricity.

No, the LumoBag system does not remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, but compensates for their effect on the increase in the earth’s temperature. With the laying of one square meter of reflecting surface (corresponds to 4 LumoBags), the emission of one tonne of CO2 can be compensated for – immediately. This buys time to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions without temperature increases reaching catastrophic levels. Global decarbonization as quickly as possible is and remains the most important measure in the fight against human-caused climate change.

There have been other projects with proposals to inject various substances into the atmosphere to reduce solar radiation. In the event of unexpected problems – such as damage to the ozone layer – these substances could no longer be removed.

Another advantage: the temperature-compensating effect of the LUMOBAG starts immediately. This is particularly important as we only have a few years left before the 1.5°C limit is exceeded.

It must be stated that there are no comparable projects that could be implemented immediately. Only rapid progress of the LUMOBAG project can ensure that the temperature rise is limited.[/et_pb_toggle][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
