A Dartmouth-led study proposes a new method for recruiting trillions of microscopic sea creatures called zooplankton in the fight against climate change by converting carbon into food the animals would eat, digest, and send deep into the ocean as carbon-filled feces.
It’s not being dissolved into the water, which would raise the acidity, but instead being sequestered into particles which sink to the bottom.
I won’t say there is definitely no unintended consequence, but I don’t think that one is likely to happen.
Ok. I reread it and I can see that. first read it sounded like it was just getting dropped and processed by organisms deeper in the ocean. If it gets it out of reach of organisms that process it back to co2 then that would be good.
