Ron, Olaf, etc all., I agree that this is a high caliber science product that is well research.
As to the scope of the work, this work might provide a supportive pivot point for a broader STEM package which can include biochar, olivine, AWL, as well as marine biomass production. It is clear that the scale of the carbon problem is so vast that a number of tools will be needed to have any meaningful impact on the global carbon cycle. Marine CDR (mCDR), which is distinct from open water OIF due to the utilization and sequestration tech and market goals, can financially support a number of established tCDR concepts which have little in the way of profit potential yet are critical to global carbon management. The development of a multi spacial sector approach, utilizing mCDR, tCDR, and emissions reduction can be our strongest strategy and would be supportable with today's STEM. This includes biochar, olivine, AWL, and other carbon management concepts. We are not in an 'either/or' STEM or policy situation. We seem to be in a situation that call out for teaming up for mutual benefit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "geoengineering" group.
