Osmond, google ocean co2 sequestration, they say that if you were to take all co2 that's in atmosphere and injected it in the worlds oceans, the co2 levels in the worlds ocean would rise < 2%,

So, with that in mind the DOCS (Department of Energy's Center for Research on Ocean Carbon Sequestration) has been doing studies for some time on off Hawaii, their idea is to capture CO2 then pump liquefied carbon dioxide directly from shore stations or from tankers trailing long pipes at sea.

CO2 is denser in deep ocean than sea water is and it may be possible to store it on the bottom as liquid or deposits of icy hydrates; Now heres the fun part, we have paid some dillweed from Berkley millions to studythe possiblity of what nature does naturally............go figure

Cut off from the land that bore us, betrayed by the land we find, where the brightest have gone before us and the dullest remain behind, .......but stand to your glasses, steady,.......tis all we have left to prize, raise a cup to the dead already, hurrah for the next that dies
