It has not drawn much attention. It requires a lot of material handling so future, more energy-constrained economics are going to be a factor. The principal reserves are not in politically stable areas. The PNAS and Project Drawdown studies do not mention it at all. I raise it here only to list all the above-the-line options. How its card gets played in the larger game remains to be seen. <br />Albert Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627996921976501534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575603731696062553.post-18733275521659854612017-10-30T17:47:16.928-05:002017-10-30T17:47:16.928-05:00albert

Therefore, the challenge boiled down to increasing photosynthesis while decreasing outgasing. Your article seems to point to peridotite as a very attractive alternative. But clicking through on your link, I discover that the basic patents were issued in 2008--9 years ago. If peridotite is such a good idea, why hasn't the technology moved forward?<br /><br />I'm not just trying to be argumentative. I'm off to an agricultural conference, and I usually talk about the importance of regenerative agriculture. But if peridotite is a very reasonable alternative, I would like to know.<br /><br />Thanks....Don StewartDon Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449201744675390686noreply@blogger.com
