World's oceans absorbing less carbon dioxide, report says

Take a supertanker load of iron oxide (rust) and spray it behind the ship while traversing the the tropical and subtropical open oceans. Will generate massive algal blooms that will take up the CO2, give off O2, and provide food for other sea life before dyign and taking the carbon to the bottom.

Let's do the math: CO2 is 3.42% of all greenhouse gases. Man-made CO2 is 3.2% of all CO2. 0.0342 * 0.032 = 0.1% So, if all the planet went 100% nuclear + solar power _tomorrow_, greenhousing drops by 1/10 of one percent.

Should CO2 shedding stop 100%, another greenhouse gas would replace it; dihydrogen monoxide, which we *cannot* control (it absorbs 20X more IR in the same spectrum). Let's not cripple our economy w/ cap+trade before we understand what's really going on!

PS: Dr_Zinj, the iron oxide experiment's been done, multiple times, and something else is at work for they didn't get the positive results expected.

Dihydrogen monoxide. lol H2O, people! Essential for human life.
