De bedoeling lijkt me nou juist om (veel van) die extra opgenomen C te laten bezinken naar de zeebodem, zodat zich daar weer nieuwe fossiele brandstof kan vormen uit dode biomassa, of door het neerslaan van carbonaten (skeletjes van diatomeeën en zo). Heel veel C ligt wereldwijd opgeslagen in kalksteenformaties. Of om het minstens tijdelijk weg te stoppen in diepe oceaanstromen, waaruit het pas over duizenden jaren weer tevoorschijn komt.Ja maar stelt er zich niet gewoon een nieuw evenwicht in

Oceans are natural carbon dioxide sinks, and as the level of carbon dioxide increases in the atmosphere, the level in the oceans also increases, creating potentially disastrous acidic oceans. Ocean water can hold a variable amount of dissolved CO2 depending on temperature and pressure. Phytoplankton in the oceans, like trees, use photosynthesis to extract carbon from CO2. They are the starting point of the marine food chain. Plankton and other marine organisms extract CO2 from the ocean water to build their skeletons and shells of the mineral calcite, CaCO3. This removes CO2 from the water and more dissolves in from the atmosphere. These calcite skeletons and shells along with the organic carbon of the organism eventually fall to the bottom of the ocean when the organisms die. The carbon or plankton cells have to sink to the deep water in 2000 to 4000 meter to be sequestered for ca. 1000 years. The sinking can be accelerated orders of magnitude when zooplankton prey on the cells and produce fast sinking fecal pellets or fecal strings, like the Antarctic krill. This process is called the biological pump. It has been theorized that the organic carbon within the accumulating ocean bottom sediments is how fossil fuels are created
