Global Warming and Climate Change} } why not plant trees instead of cover crops?

The basic idea of my plan is to allow the planet's temperature regulation system to be rebuilt, by decreasing the sizes of arid and semi-arid areas of the planet as quickly as we can. This can not be done only by planting trees that can take many years to grow, and not provide the water back into the atmosphere in a timely fashion. Cover crops can be made to cover land much quicker than anything else as long as adequate water is available and it can be protected by the winds that can blow away crop seeds, or even the birds that can eat them. There are many methods that can control both, I love hydro-seeding, it locks the seeds into a mulch type bed that can also provide spot fertilizer for quick growth and protection from hot sun and winds and birds. And once enough land is put under, cover crops, then those crops can supply the mulch for the next set of lands to hydro seeded, which means that some of the first few years of production will mainly be used as a starter mulch instead of cattle or fish feed. This would be a mathematic progression, so every period of growth of the original alfalfa cover crop could increase how much hydroseeding could be done. and while each crop matures the next set of land would be prepared for planting. Wind fences would be important for protecting each new seedbed from being covered over by blowing soils. And once built could be moved around as needed, these would be miles long but would not have to be very tall or solid. One very important fact is that the waters that we would be using would be full of nutrients and silt that would greatly improve the soils that we are trying to use. Between the many millions of workers available and the machinery that could easily be brought to bear, I see no reason that miles of land could be planted every day, as long as there would be enough water. Yes problems will occur and setbacks will happen, nature can throw things at you that can not always be planned for and this is a work in progress, but mankind has done much harder things than this,  and with less need and much fewer people. We only have to look at what is happening now, with the coronavirus! Reach me in the USA @ 402-890-7946 or by email @ <danielkadavy212@gmail.com> Thank You, Dan

Global Warming and Climate Change} Lost of available carbon vs. too much C02 in atmosphere!

Global Warming and "The life cycle of a planet" By Daniel Kadavy  402-890-7946  Cortland Nebraska                                                                                                                                                                                                                The planet is running out of carbon, which is the mainstay of all life on the planet! Something has to be done to mitigate this. And yet Global Warming is changing ...

503 DIII Humanity is the only species that have to pay to live and survive. while there are a few exceptions to this rule, they are few and far between!

What does that say about how we live? It means that we have very little say in most aspects of our lives if we wish to live in a house, we must pay for that privilege with taxes, energy, insurance, maintenance, and keeping the standards that each place puts upon the owners, cutting grass, moving snow, and so many other requirements to fall within acceptable parameters of society! We must obey laws we may disagree with, nor have any input in their adoption or application! While there are many different arrangements of governments around the world, even the ones that are voted in or out of power by the masses are never truly fair in explaining to their constituents what they are going to attempt to do if elected! Yet this is the world we live in while we attempt to understand what 3.5 billion years of carbon sequestration have forced our planet to go through, including almost every single extinction event that has occurred in the history of our planet!  So the problem that we face is...

CCLXXIV Global Warming and Climate Change} Let's talk more, about the 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon, that is left for all life on the planet!

First, how do scientist's come up with around 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon left on the planet? Some of the amounts can be directly measured, how much there is in the atmosphere is one of the most researched numbers on the planet! That figure of 415 parts per million equals around 800 gigatonnes of carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide. 560 gigatonnes in plant and animal life are based on both satellite images for how much plant life is on the planet during the year and measurements that were taken by hundreds of people every year all around the planet. How much soil carbon, is taken by averaging soil carbon from all over the globe this amount is said to be 1,500 gigatonnes. The amount of "fossil Fuels" is the amount of "known" reserves found by mainly oil accompanying who has been looking as far and fast as they can, that amount is estimated at 4,000 gigatonnes (The carbon sequestrated in fossil fuels would only become available if mankind continues to ...
