From what I understand, it will help... eventually.
If ambient temperatures come back to normal, then the ocean won't absorb as much CO2.
- eloff 7y agoYes, I think so. I wonder by how much.
- beerandt 7y agoThe bigger issue is the large amount of co2 that the ocean will quickly release back into the atmosphere as temperature and partial-pressure drop. It would be better if we could come up with a way to neutralize / sequester the co2 already in the ocean.
- DuskStar 7y agoThat's Project Vesta: https://projectvesta.org/ https://projectvesta.org/ Basically, artificial green-sand beaches which absorb CO2 as they weather.
