Yes I know that very well. I only speak of stratospheric aerosol as you
can notice from the last abstract in my mail. Additional to the many
photochemical, chemical and biological greenhouse gas depletion

New paper out today from David Keith et al.. a nice summary pointing out
what is in principle straightforward and known but certainly not well
recognized (or quantified); that solar geoengineering would likely also
reduce atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
Dear Franz
l can only agree with your short and deep explanation of the complex
interactions between the earth's biosphere, the lithosphere and the atmosphere.
In a nutshel we cannot reinvent the wheel but can only emulate mother gaia to
some extent. Such scientific soundness is lacking in most
Gaia's system is much more complex as most climate engineers might
imagine: plant roots use chemical, mechanical and biological means to
extract nutrients and micronutrients out of the ground within they grow.
Roots excrete CO2 and organic complexants into the ground and they
cooperate with
