WSC Science Latest Update 100% Solved If It's Broke, Fix It: Geoengineering Go Overwhelm!! Geoengineering he deliberate large-scale manipulation of an environmental process that affects the earth's climate to counteract the effects of global warming. Greenhouse gas Gases that warms Earth (ex: carbon, methane, ozone) carbon sequestration process of capturing and storing (removing) atmospheric carbon dioxide land-use planning system of laws for development of environment made by humans. biochar form of charcoal that is created by burning biomass with little access to Oxygen in a process known as pyrolyzation. biochar's benefit It is able to sequester (store) a large amount of Carbon from the biomass, which would normally be released as greenhouse gasses if the biomass was simply burnt. Biochar also is able to improve water quality, soil fertility, agricultural production, making them a lot useful. biomass plant or animal material used for energy production. enhanced weathering A method of getting rid of oceanic carbon dioxide by dissolving small rocks and minerals to the ocean which trap the CO2. Getting rid of oceanic CO2 in turn allows the ocean absorb more CO2 from the atmosphere. carbon dioxide capture A process of filtering out carbon dioxide before it leaves an industrial plant then burying it in the ground, an oil reserve or the ocean. ocean fertilization Dumping nutrients such as Iron Sulphates to accelerate phytoplankton growth, which absorbs CO2 then dies storing carbon. (However, the effect to ecosystem is unknown) ocean
