Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 is set to become the first post-secondary institution in North America to install carbon-sequestering field turf as part of the revitalization project for Nixon Field.

With the field카지노 게임 컬렉션�s operating season over, the existing turf is being removed this week and the turf replacement 카지노 게임 컬렉션� part of Athletics & Recreation카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 10-year capital plan 카지노 게임 컬렉션� will be completed in the spring.

With partners FieldTurf and local company Canadian Wollastonite, the project will use enhanced rock weathering (ERW) 카지노 게임 컬렉션� a nature-based process that accelerates the natural weathering of rocks 카지노 게임 컬렉션�as a base beneath the new turf field. The technology will help remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and help address climate change by sequestering  the carbon equivalent of 165 tree seedlings grown over 10 years, or 11.7 acres of forest annually.
