  • Resumen

  • Dive into the remarkable story of photosynthesis, a process that transformed Earth's history and continues to shape our future. From its ancient origins 3.4 billion years ago in purple sulfur bacteria to the revolutionary Great Oxidation Event that filled our atmosphere with life-sustaining oxygen, photosynthesis has been a driving force in evolution. Explore the fascinating symbiosis that gave rise to chloroplasts, the intricate mechanics of splitting water with sunlight, and the ingenious adaptations of C4 and CAM plants to thrive in harsh environments.

    We’ll also uncover how this fundamental process sustains life, producing six times the energy humanity consumes annually, and how scientists are harnessing its power to address climate change, boost crop yields, and create sustainable fuels. Join us for a journey through time and innovation, where the green machinery of life offers lessons for a brighter, greener future.
