Researchers Develop Process for Making Oceans Better Able To Combat Global Warming

Fully implementing the process would require the construction of dozens of facilities similar to large chlorine gas industrial plants, on volcanic rock coasts around the world. The researchers caution that while they claim their approach for reducing global warming is possible, the implementation of it would be expensive and highly ambitious. The plan also poses some environmental risks that require additional study. “

This work shows how we can remove carbon dioxide on relevant timescales, but more work is needed to bring down the cost and minimize other environmental effects,” says Dr. Christopher H. House.
