Not all geoengineering is the same. Beavers are geoengineers. We have already had a crazy huge impact on this planet, we should absolutely do something to mitigate these effects. A distributed (as opposed to all in one location) carbon cycle buffer is about the least harmful effect one can hope for and still have a positive impact.

Those bicarbonate ions are great for combating ocean acidification, they act as a pH buffer. Ocean acidification is rising due to increased atmospheric CO2 levels and that decrease in pH makes it harder for macro life forms to utilize carbonates to form shells and drives extinction. By increasing the concentration of bicarbonate, the carrying capacity of the ocean to absorb atmospheric CO2 without changing the pH is increased.

I assumed there were no sober Zamboni drivers

Please go buy a subscription to your local news paper if it still exists, even if you almost never read it.

$10,000 fine on a $1,000,000 lottery is just a 1% tax. I’m surprised he even bothered to notice.

They have been trying to find somewhere to build their next scale up for a few years now.
