🚨💣The strangest geoengineering idea yet?💣🚨

A new paper suggests detonating an absolutely gigantic nuclear bomb (1,600x bigger than Tsar Bomba) deep beneath the seabed to accelerate carbon removal (#CDR).

A thread on this bold climate proposal:🧵1/11 2/ Climate change is an existential threat, which is why some researchers explore extreme solutions. This one might be one of them.

The idea? Use a nuclear bomb to shatter massive amounts of basalt, speeding up Enhanced Rock Weathering (#ERW)—a natural carbon capture process.

🚨PAPER—The Arctic’s frozen ground, permafrost, holds massive reserves of ancient carbon. As the planet warms, this carbon faces a dangerous release into the atm, accelerating climate change. Could solar geoengineering (#SRM) help save it? The answer is complex.

DETAILS🧵 1/7 2/7 Permafrost is warming faster than the global average, poised to unleash C stored for millennia. This creates a feedback loop—warming leads to more C release, which leads to more warming. Simulations show SRM could limit global warming to 1.5°C & slow permafrost thaw. But...

🚨🏗Imagine a world where buildings don’t just house us but actively fight climate change🏗🚨

A new study reveals that CO2-storing materials in construction could capture 16.6 billion tonnes of CO2 annually — half of global emissions in 2021!
#CarbonSink

DETAILS🧵1/9 2/ The key lies in re-engineering materials like concrete, asphalt, wood, bricks, and plastics to store carbon. These materials are already used on a massive scale, making them ideal for turning the built environment into a carbon sink.
