>>13418525>acidify the oceans by actively dumping co2 into the oceans instead of only passively dumping co2 into the oceansare you retarded?
>iron fertilization of seathat's another retarded idea. Do you realize how much damage that will do?
>reflectors in orbit>aerosols in stratosphereso two comic book villain style non-solutions that will like make the problem worse or be ineffective at best
>cloud seedingclouds also help insulate energy, especially UV radiation.
>grow treesSure. It's better to properly manage forests and try to let them expand than it is to just mindlessly plant trees.
>genetically engineered cropsa bullshit method. Naturally growing weed grasses that grow together normally in grasslands are more effective than these abominations. Also genetically engineered crops are nowhere near as healthy as natural occurring or traditionally bred crops. Biodiversity is key for carbon absorption. If you're doing these meme solutions, then you're not going to get anywhere. Genetically engineered crops tend to out-compete and in addition stifle the growth of diverse flora due to designed competitive advantage against other plants. This ends up minimizing the effectiveness of grasses to sequester carbon.
>greening desertsMost places that are deserts in the earth are deserts due to geography and its effect on storm systems. The only reason people can grow things in deserts such as Utah or Arizona is because they can draw large amounts of water from aquifers and redirect it. The only reason Las Vegas has any water is because it can redirect the water from the Colorado river. You're not going to be successful in this endeavor.
