427 Everything that was at some point life, but now removed from life due to carbon sequestration, can be remade into being used for life!

       The movement of the planet's techtonics plates has always been how much of the carbon that sequestration had buried deep into the crust of the planet, was released back into the atmosphere via volcanoes, or sea venting, or anything that brings sequestrated carbon into the close proximity of very high temperatures! Mankind has changed many of the places that this action now happens, Kilns, engines, furnaces, anything that mankind uses to take carbon that was once life and get energy out of or, purify the carbon into usable products such as cement! Due to economical forces, mankind is much more efficient in converting sequestrated carbon back into the earth's carbon cycle than our planet is! For when two tectonic plates meet, normally half of the material is raised up while the other half is driven down deeper into the crust, neither is guaranteed to be returned as carbon dioxide gas back into the carbon cycle, most simply remains as sequestrated carbon either a...

426 I have built 5 homes by myself, and 2 relatively big businesses by myself, while framing up so many homes that I do not even recall them all!

    I have also built over 200 apartments in the normal fashion using, all of the different trades needed. I did not even own a computer until I started my Blogsite "Life cycle of a planet" in August of 2019. In the last 10 years, I have taken down by hand, barns, homes, almost anything older than 90 years or so, so that the materials could be sold and recycled. You can say that I am a hands-on type of person. My wife says that I hate to throw anything that still has use in it away, however, she seems to like the term "hoarder". For the most part, Americans have very little problem throwing anything away, "Buy new every two" seems to have a special meaning for us! I do believe that we have passed on much of that consumerism, to many other parts of the planet! And it has become an integral part of the economical plan for our country!      Around 13 years ago now, I put the last pieces of the puzzle together on what caused the starting and stopping of so man...

425 or CDXXV either way it seems like it should be some type of milestone, What came out of COP26? confusion, disarray, and too many unknowns!

    Many nations seem to have gone in looking for a vast commitment of money from the wealthy nations, who they feel are the most responsible for the crisis in the first place, thinking that money can solve anything!  Well, that was never going to happen without a million strings attached to prove that how the money would be used to benefit the whole planet, not just to build higher and stronger walls to solve temporary local concerns.     The next major objective, was to achieve carbon-neutral living, working, and travel, as quickly as possible, and only renewable energy sources would be able to achieve that! The cost and timeframe to change from fossil to renewable energy would quickly bankrupt, most countries if the objective would be within a 20-year timeframe! Yes, there are those who say that is not true, and only the fossil fuel companies are spreading that misinformation.      The third major objective, was to stop all non-renewable de-for...

424 What would the "plan" look like if corporations were to get involved?

       The first thing to change would be the design of the bridges and underpasses of how water would be moved. Without corporations, everything would need arch support, with corporation's long spans of steel or prestressed concrete with life spans of less than 50 years, while the arch supports would have to be shorter spans and much more labor-intensive, their lifespans would turn out to be many hundreds of years, just as we still use such bridges that the Roman's built 2,000 years ago. Construction of the dams constructed by corporations would be giant dams hundreds of feet tall, holding back billions of feet acres of water, while the dams built by non-corporations would instead be many, much smaller dams dug 50 feet deep into the ground much like natural lakes, with a minimal chance of structural failure, and with easy access and no outside boats would be allowed to prevent cross-contamination when a boat is taken from dam-to-dam, but every lake would have all of...

423 I saw a short item yesterday about a lake of water underneath 2 miles of ice that Russians and Americans drilled down into.

 And for some reason, it seems to come as a shock that the carbon dioxide levels in the water were over 20 times higher than anywhere else on the planet. How could that come as a shock, this water was what water all over the planet was like prior to there being any ice on the planet, just over 3,000,000 years ago. This water is simply a time capsule of what the planet was like prior to the planet cooling enough to start snow and ice to develop. It is no different than amber acting as a time capsule of the atmosphere when the resin first seeped from the tree.        Is there, no one out there who understands how limestone is made, 100 million gigatonnes of it on the planet that was once life, and it just magically appeared fully formed without coming from somewhere? NO, it was all stored in the atmosphere and waters of this great planet since the planet was formed from the cosmic dust that was once other stars that exploded many billions of years ago. Not ro...

422 The economics of the "plan" is what will allow it to be followed or to be completely rejected because the wrong "people" will benefit from it!

      Everyone on the planet is put into some type of box, where they are born, their sex, the color of their skin, if educated or not, even their appearance, and who their parents are, all play a role in how someone is judged. Of course, that box will vary greatly depending on where anyone is at and can change over a lifetime in many ways. The one box that remains the most consistent, is  those born to wealth and power.     The "plan" does not care for whatever box anyone is in, it deals with saving all carbon-based life on the planet while improving the weather so that extreme weather is significantly reduced. The current economics of the planet leaves many people without hope for a better future, mainly because of the boxes that have been placed around them. But because the "plan" is so all-encompassing, and will require hundreds of millions of people to move water to the arid and semi-arid areas of the planet and then start the job of re-planting those ...

421 I have tried to break down each action that mankind needs to do to make the "plan" an actuality, but the overall concept is re-terraforming Earth!

I have hesitated to call the "plan" Re-terraforming the planet because of the monumentous design that those words conjure up! Terraforming means to make Earth-like, so yes the "plan" re-makes the atmosphere of the planet back into what it was 3 million years ago, yet with a lot of ice still being staged on the planet, which was not on the planet 3 million years ago.      With mankind working together to re-build the temperature-regulating ability of the planet, in as little as 30 years or one generation much of the planet would be well on its way of self temperature-regulation with little additional input needed from mankind. It all comes down to maintaining plant coverage of soils, and the corresponding plant respiration producing increased cloud coverage, to both reduce sunlight being changed into heat and increase "now" consistent rainfall.      The "plan" has many aspects to it and they all produce money in the long run, if there is anywhere ...
