If you think most current conventional fields have weeds i've got really bad news.
32.
by quixoticelixer- 4y ago
Would be very very difficult for most weeds to mimic most crop plants. Plants can not become invisible.

> Weeds adapting to look like non-weeds is highly plausible, IMO. It's not highly plausible. It would take a lot of generations and a lot of mutations for this to happen.

What do you think currently happens in most fields? I'll give you a hint. They dont just let weeds grow.

This is not one of the bigger problems to solve for our generation. European honey bees are not going anywhere.

New cameras are much much better. There's a lot more to quality than just optics and pixels

Dirt is not just made from organic matter.

Composting oxidizes a lot of the carbon. And since you have to replant, harvest and fertilise everyyear it is a lot more intensive than forestry where you do that ever 30 (15-100) years

No, you get trees for planting from a nursery, not from the wild. And tree planting is not "automatic"

Not all cover crops are nitrogen fixing.

It actually is more technology. Our extensive techonology use it not pushing ecosystems out of balance. It's our massive land use changes and requirements for land that are.

Even so you still have 30-100 years of carbon sequestration.

The amount of fuel used by transporting 10,000 seedlings is easily sequestered by just one of them growing.

You can pretty easily replace those nutrients though.

by quixoticelixer- 4y ago
That's not necessarily true

Most trees take >100 years to reach "max CO2"

There are those trees but the difficult bit it finding a cheap was to bury thousands of tonnes of wood so that it won't decompose.
49.
by quixoticelixer- 4y ago
Depends on the trees but if we are talking about redwoods its certainly more for the 1000 year old tree.

Planting monoculture also has big advantages

Why hempcrete when you could use wood? > Hemp can be left down to return nutrients to the soil or for soil remediation as it's a very absorbent plant (that draws e.g. heavy metals out of soil and into the plant) It won't remove

Biochar is also intensive and only converts a relatively small amount of that carbon into stable charcoal.

No it's not a bayer arrangement. There are 4 times as many pixels, they are just being over-sampled. The sensor is not the same as the previous generation. Each pixel is grouped together with three others for most applications (taking

- Plantations aren't worse for the soil than native vegetation most of the time. Sometimes they can be better for it. - A lot of the time plantations are planted on less productive farmland. - Not all plantations will naturally regene

> That's an assumption. And even if it were true, those trees would take years to begin to sequester the same amount of carbon that the previously existing trees did. And even then, it's not obvious that those new trees would s

You can built wood frame buildings much taller. And wood framing is stiffer especially if you are using mass timber.

It's not like lightning cables have an infinite lifespan though. And they won't actually be sent into the ocean

They are actual pixels all from one sensor. They are put into groups of 4 to get 12 effective megapixels.
