Perhaps you can help me with something.
According to Google AI, and a couple of sources I found, oxygen cools the atmosphere. In other words, more oxygen equals a cooler earth.
While we've been adding carbon to the atmosphere, we've also been cutting down trees and plants.
Meaning there's fewer organisms doing photosynthesis.
Meaning the amount of oxygen added to the atmosphere has gone down.
So...if oxygen increases help cool the atmosphere, the decrease in oxygen is probably helping warm the atmosphere.
Meaning it's contributing to global warming.
What would happen if we put that oxygen BACK? After all, it's much easier to add oxygen than it is to remove carbon.
I'm not talking about electrolysis. That creates hydrogen, which gets combined with oxygen when it's used for energy. In other words, electrolysis puts oxygen in the air, but when the hydrogen from it is used for energy, it takes the oxygen right back out.
But maybe a microbe...? 0 reply
