Spreading crushed basalt rock mud on fields
UNDO
Tasks that unfold rock mud on farms are eradicating extra carbon dioxide from the environment than competing applied sciences – however CO2 removing efforts stay far brief of what’s wanted to keep away from harmful ranges of world warming.
Often known as enhanced rock weathering, the tactic includes spreading crushed volcanic rocks over fields to speed up the pure weathering course of by which CO2 within the environment is transformed to steady mineral type. Spurred by its relative simplicity – and new proof that the rock mud can enhance crop yields in addition to sequester carbon – this…
