> "Any increase in the occurrence of anoxia in the ocean should therefore enhance the geologic organic carbon sink. The solubility of oxygen decreases with increasing water temperatures, so a warmer Earth should have a less oxygenated ocean (all other things being equal). Increased stratification will also reduce the downward transport of oxygenated surface waters to depth. An increase in carbon preservation and burial in marine sediments in response to global warming is therefore starting to look like a distinct possibility."
Basically, you end up re-creating the conditions that led to the formation of the majority of the world's large oil & gas deposits some hundred(s) of millions of years ago.
