What if humans could photosynthesize? (video)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30, 2016 -- The sun shines a massive amount of energy onto the Earth's surface every day. What if humans could take a cue from plants and use sunlight to make their own food? From chloroplasts to carbon dioxide, Reactions creates a hypothetical photosynthetic human and gives a quick crash course on the chemistry of photosynthesis. Soak up some sun and some knowledge here: https://youtu.be/z3RGwdJGzOo.
