Quote:I'm pretty sure the Earth will heal itself. But it would be a shame if our descendants were exterminated by a vengeful planet due to our careless greed.They assumed the Cod population off the Grand banks would heal itself, but its healing rate was overwhelmed by Man's ability to efficiently harvest Cod at ever increasing rates over a period of decades.
It took very pro active conservation measures and controls to repair the Cod's looming demise, and they really have not made a strong comeback.
The healing rate isn't something you and I can adjust with a rheostat. In some of Fragbait's links, I found the treatment of CO2 and its dissolution into sea water, as well as its release, very revealing.
Plant more trees. Can't hurt. :D
