remineralizing the soil with finely ground gravel dust
triples or quadruples the growth rate of plants! By grinding up mixed
gravels (which contain the full spectrum of minerals) into a dust as
fine as talcum powder so they can be made use of quickly by the
plants, and by spreading this dust by airplane, blower-truck and every
conceivable means over most of the world's remaining forests, the
forests will become rejuvenated.


We also need to plant vast quantities of new, fast-growing species of
trees on remineralized soil. As the revitalized forests thrive and
spread, they will consume much of the excess carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere, (snip)

All of which takes energy, burning enough hydrocarbon fuels to cancel
the hoped-for effect and then some. Also involves planting non-native
species, often an ecological disaster. -Jitney
