Steven 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 mechanisms of the ISA method its plume of hygroscopic iron and halogenid

[geo] Solar geoengineering reduces atmospheric carbon burden

2017-09-01 Thread Douglas MacMartin
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
