Well here they go,, they put to sea a tiny vessel for the first try for
the "real" solution,, since this is politically incorrect ( they want us
to stop using fossil fuels ) it has many nay sayers. Most of the CO2
released by man came from these little guys, (they are where oil comes
from), getting them to absorb it back,, is the solution.

It will take a couple of real ships, not this little boat, to actually
turn the CO2 problem around,, it is a start



It's really a simple solution to a simple problem,, you must, just, go
all the way back to how the Carbon got into the fossil fuels we use that
releases it,, then just put it back. ( the way to solve any problem is
to get to the root of it) In this case putting it back requires no
extra energy, because where the seas are going to be fertilized , most
of the solar energy is not used, due to the lack of nutrients in the
water, all that energy is wasted "just" heating the ocean water (another
problem that will be solved). People have not even realized this, all of
the solar energy used to convert the CO2 back to Carbon in these plants,
will not, and can not be used to heat the water, as it has been
expended. Thus slowing global warming even more. The best benefit is
when these little plants die, and fall to the sea's floor (taking the
carbon with them) they will eventually make more oil.

Why are people claiming this will not work ? That there needs to be
years of more study done before attempting it? Well,, it will cut their
lively hoods out, their research money will stop, their FAME (as in
brother Al Gore) will disappear. They want a complicated solution, not a
simple one, as no one makes hundreds of billions of dollars solving the
problem this way.

I have seen the test of this,( done 10 years ago) and it is awesome the
amount of Carbon absorbed per square mile, per day, of ocean that has
just been given a tiny bit of iron dust. They have run the numbers, if
they wanted to, with 5 "real" ships spreading the iron, they can reduce
the CO2 levels in the world's atmosphere 20 years worth of Man's build
up of CO2, each year, in 5 years the levels would be what is was in
1900, another 5 years and it would be down to where it was in 1700. I
don't think they need to, or want to, do it that fast though.
