درباره این کتاب:
This book
presents a solutions based approach to
reducing and removing CO2 from the
atmosphere transforming it into solid
(crystalline) CaCO3 through the ability of
marine organisms such as molluscs,
crustacea, corals, and coccolithophore
algae. The overwhelming advantage of this
approach is that it promises enhanced
climate mitigation in comparison to
planting forests, industrial/engineering
carbon capture and storage process. It
also provides a sustainable food resource.
Furthermore, it would improve the ocean's
biodiversity at the same time as the
excess atmospheric CO2 released by our use
of fossil fuels is returned to the place
it belongs - as a present day fossil,
safely out of the atmosphere to the
distant future. If the level of finance
and global effort that are readily
foreseen for forest management and flue
gas treatments were applied to expansion
of global shellfish cultivation, curative
amounts of carbon dioxide could be
permanently removed from the atmosphere
within a few decades. The concept
presented in this book could have a
profound influence on the life of the
planet.
