Earthworms facilitate carbon sequestration through unequal amplification of
carbon stabilization compared with mineralization

This is my first day back from the 4-day biochar conference (went well). I
have read the abstract and the supplementary material, but not yet the full
article (copy would be much appreciated). I am pretty sure the authors are
encouraging vermiculture for CDR reasons - but th

One issue with earthworms is that they can consume forest floor nutrients
useful to the macro flora. Here In the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere,
where earthworms are not indigenous yet have become ubiquitous, tree growth
rates have been adversely effected by the introduction

OK, thanks Michael. I'll tell my squadron of B 52s hold off aerial bombing of
the N hemisphere with earthworms until we get more information. As for whales

Hi,
Whales are very slow growing and reproducing animals and would not be a quick

While the ngo community would welcome support in protecting wild whales and
helping populations re-grow, i anticipate

Hi thanks Charles,
I agree and think mariculture of algae looks interesting. While this isnt
really geo-eng, you can see ano interview i did here on the topic: I wouldnt
consider whales as any part of geo-engine
