Can pumping chemicals into the ocean help stop global heating?
"The risk of “catastrophic unforeseen consequences”."

"...Using chemicals to solve an environmental problem seems reckless. “What we’re seeing is a push to exert more precise control over natural systems."

"To some it was a reckless experiment but scientists hope the dispersal of 65,000 litres of sodium hydroxide into the Gulf of Maine could ease the climate crisis" >>

Microsoft bought 93% of ALL carbon removal credits globally last year (BloombergNEF data).

One company is basically subsidizing an entire industry into existence. Impressive commitment — but the CDR market needs more big buyers to mature.

When will other tech giants step up? That's when costs drop and the market really takes off. 📊

"Desde el sur de África hasta Sudamérica, la aparición de proyectos de créditos de carbono, adquiridos por las empresas para reducir su huella medioambiental, se traduce en el acaparamiento de tierras en detrimento de las poblaciones locales."

The standard simple image viewer is #gwenView.

The image found at @scriptkiddie's that you see in this Screenshot taken by #specTacle, the screen tackler that comes with the bundle, has been resized from 1536x1024px to 640x360px and became converted to .webp with #GIMP to get a glimpse on how this format might look on #mastodon, as over here on #friendica we, or at least some to most of us, live more like in a quiet desktop world.

As friendica allows since [2024.12] the use of .webp for the standard stream distribution, it's highly recommended to use that format, it saves a lot of transmission energy, as well as storage space and their for #carbonCredits on every #climateFront.

To see how it really looks like, the actual 99,6 KB image comes in a follow up to this post and will be published as a [spoiler][/spoiler]'ed and [center][/center]'ed image.
