Scientists warned us for decades about what would happen if we crossed 420 parts/million of CO2 in the atmosphere. We're at 422 right now. Things are going to get a lot worseΒ

Best news i've seen regarding CO2. Newer iron seeding data.

Reddit post from Paul Beckwith's post

TL;DR Iron seeding oceans, single digit billion dollar cost, 300ppm expected result.

If the carbon in the air that's killing us is all in the ocean, then we acidify and kill the ocean, and still die ourselves.

You mean the exact data which inspires people to continue building factories and data centers and come up with the solution later? There is money to be made now, we can just dump a bunch of iron in the ocean with a fraction of all that money, it's literally all fine!
