Human activity adds more than 50 gigatons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere each year. New Solid Carbon technology might be able to lock climate-warming carbon dioxide below ocean bedrock. Basalt is a porous rock formed from cooling lava. Large-scale solutions are urgently needed. By Dr Kate Moran.

The ocean retains heat for much longer than land does. The radiators are, in fact, cooling down, but their stored heat is still warming the air in the room. Over the years, scientists added oceans , land, ice sheets, chemistry and biology. The heat is distributed around the world through weather and oceanic currents.

In an unchanging climate, the random fluctuations would lead to warming in some parts of the world and cooling in others. In a world with just random local fluctuations but no climate change, about half the weather stations would show a (more or less significant) warming, the other half a cooling. It’s not hard to understand.

What they showed are the distinct fingerprints of two kinds of forcing; increasing solar activity which warms all parts of the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide increases which warm the surface and troposphere, but cool the stratosphere and above. The basic issue stems from the different timescales of the ocean and atmosphere.
