The forests are becoming net Carbon emitters (wildfires and deforestation pressures), the Oceans are overloaded with CO2 and acidifying (phytoplankton) and the permafrost Carbon bomb is going off with methane release due to anaerobic bacterial ingestion of Carbon from thawed out biomass (28 times more warming potential than CO2). Permafrost contains most of the terrestrial Carbon. There's also 'Tipping point' theory. A lot of intel around that. Speak science to power.
Is this a climate emergency?
So, the idea is this, without using fancy economic modelling:
Tax the Carbon export commodities eg. fossil fuels, with a large Carbon export tax (disincentive for C pollution).
Pay the Carbon removalists/Charistas on the Carbon Removal Marketplace (incentive for C removal).
Bad idea: CO2 import/export marketplace. What about the C logistics footprint and acidification of aquifer groundwater? Presumably, the idea was conceived by the fossil industry to prolong the use of 'clean' fossil fuel using dodgy CCS tech.
I've got a hot Flame Cap 'Algorithm' Panel Kiln design and Carbon Removal Marketplace platform concept ready to R&D for software, data and Charista entrepreneurs on the ground floor.
Maybe we can contribute to a 'Safe climate' for all species with potentially the cheapest biochar production per litre (Algorithm), the most efficient (harnessing the power of deep learning) and granular (down to individual panel kilns) platform?
All the computers and software in the world can't remove Carbon. Someone needs to do it. Complex biochar kilns are bloody expensive which only the elite can afford. What if the software backend crashes? Well, you've still got a biochar kiln that can produce biochar for many use cases, can be sold and can be bartered. What do you have to lose? Maybe I could get paid in 10 minutes after a burn to remove Carbon? Is that a risk worth taking?
