Scientists believe they have found a solution to our rapidly increasing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, and they call on nothing more than a hint of lime (well, maybe a bit more than that, I'm still unclear how much a "hint" really is). These scientists have developed a theory that by adding lime to our oceans, the water's ability to absorb and hold CO2 is drastically increased, effectively reversing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. It would, according to their theory, restore CO2 levels to an amount not seen since before the industrial revolution (CO2 love us long time).
The lime required is actually from limestone, and was previously thought too expensive to extract. But Tim Kruger, from the consulting and private equity firm Corven, thinks that due to regions with "stranded energy"--flared natural gas or high solar energy levels in deserts--too remote to exploit economically, are areas that this process could be feasible.
For more on this quite unique solution to CO2 emissions and ozone protection, here's the full article.
Put the lime in the ocean and make global warming stop.
