I'm glad the coral has been given a second chance.

We went snorkeling near Molokini off Maui in 1985 and then about 20 years later. The difference in the coral was depressing. I'm hoping this invention will help bring the beautiful coral back into view. How impressive! We went snorkeling near Molokini off Maui in 1985 and then about 20 years later.

Rusting ships make good coral reefs. Sprinkle the ocean with Iron dust and the Algae asorb the CO2. An explosion of marine life. But the trees will become CO2 starved. Does Mother Earth have enough CO2 to make 100 billion people ? The oceans are Iron deficient. Rusting ships make good coral reefs.

An explosion of marine life.
But the trees will become CO2 starved.

Does Mother Earth have enough CO2 to make 100 billion people ?

Once again we display our ability to solve one problem and create another in the process. The last statement, "the impact of an alien species" makes me wonder about our own origins considering the impact we have had on mother earth in comparison to all other forms of life here. Maybe it isn't just a crazy conspiracy theory. You know what I mean? Better living through science. Once again we display our ability to solve one problem and create another in the process.
