Re: [DIYbio] Why isn't there more talk on carbon sequestration?

Better photosynthesis through synthetic rubisco constructs. Better plants, less carbon, happier planet. Mad? I think not. So much funding is invested in making natures crappy workhorse protein a bit better at its job. Side effects may include increased atmo O2 levels, decrease in atmo carbon dioxide, rampant weeds through horizontal transfer, etc. You win some you lose some.

LOL, because carbon sequestration is a terrible energy intensive process that only a madman would pursue.

Pardon my abrupt dismissal.  But it's a bad idea.  And I don't believe in giving bad ideas any validation.

I hear about climate change or global warming weekly or daily
sometimes, but I never hear about carbon sequestration. Even if it
wasn't solar powered, there's still excess capacity on the electric
grid at night. Heck I don't even hear about soil-building
farming/livestock-pasturing techniques.

Forget bitcoin, I want to make some carbon credits!
