The
Ocean Nourishment organic carbon cycle in the ocean shows a large amount of
carbon limited by the amount of nutrients in the ocean. The Ocean Nourishment
process mimics nature by providing supplimentary nutrients to increase the size
of the organic carbon cycle. Nourishment for the ocean is obtained from the
atmosphere using natural gas as fuel stock by a process that releases no carbon
dioxide. The nourishment is delivered at the edge of the continent shelf by
pipeline and then swept over the deep ocean by prevailing currents. Enhanced
photosynthesis consumes from each plant, 10 million tons of carbon dioxide per
year, generating a valuable stream of carbon credits. In addition, increased
fish stocks help restore the health of the oceans.

Reduction in atmospheric carbon dioxide can be accomplished at a low cost with EOS Worley's carbon dioxide sink technology. The key is ocean nourishment. Implementation can begin today.
