Thank you. This is why I don't know how to approach the math. I have a hand-wavy: This is potentially not quite 2 percent of total GHG emissions per year, but I don't know the weighted value of each type of gas and hypothetically something like 50 to 100 projects "like" this one each year for a decade gets us in the ballpark of stopping man made climate change. Can 8 billion people produce 50 to 100 projects (each year) that move the needle this much? This works in part because it was initially a hard sell to get the farmers to agree to participate in the experiment but it went so well that halfway through the year, 10 more farmers chose to drain their rice paddies of water. So you don't even have to talk people into taking a hit of some kind for the greater good. They will convert to this because of the higher crop yield and money in their pockets -- assuming (or as soon as) they can afford the transitional costs and a fund could be created to help with that to speed up adoption.
