Sunday.
Didn't sleep at all last night. Still, I caught up with people. Stayed up in the end cause it was obvious that I wasn't going to get any sleep. Still not too bad ause I aught up with people. Feel a bit queasy today again though. Thought I was going to be sik this morning and maybe heading for hospital.
Head turned up one of James Lovelock's books for £2 yesterday. Revenge of Gaia I think, Think I mentioned years ago in the blogs that i never read Gaia If I remember correctly about Revenge of Gaia it's his theory that the world is doomed, doomed, doomed because of the breakdown of the eco systems.
The article in New Scientist is rather more hopeful than that. He just feels that we need to get a move on but isn't hopeful that it will happen. I think he's basing that judgement on the Kyoto treaty which he felt didn't go far enough in combating climate change..
Well, carbon storage has started already and G8 has laid out future plans. It has to be combined with something like Kyoto though because you still can't continue producing huge amounts of the chemicals that are affecting the planet's ecosystems.
You have to use quite a bit of energy for carbon storage .. processing it and transportation et6. Some people have wondered if it will be worth it but it will save the planet from a considerable amount of the carbon stored .. the rest will be new fuels used to process it etc .. which is quite a good saving and will give the planet more time to recover and slow the damage down..
It is a very, very expensive procedure and this has already caused problems .. but it does look as if it's the best hope there is along with decreasing the chemical output that is changing the eco systems so radically.
A rather nice video on carbon storage

Carbon storage happens naturally in nature when there are storms at sea. There was a typoon in Taiwan last year which was studied by scientists to see just how this worked and how much carbon was stored.
