Deep Deposit Carbon

This is a sound assessment of the integration of forestry sequestration into the climate model for reducing Carbon emissions, thanks to Tim Haab (be sure to read his Post for important element). My major comment states that forestry sequestration must engage major segments of the Populace, in a manner which is both economically and environmentally viable. Carbon sequestration has to be disbursed throughout the areas of heaviest Carbon emissions; it cannot be restricted only to underdeveloped countries and Tropical areas. Effective conversion must be constructed in a local base. Wind flows will alter in direction and speed with a Smokestack effect, creating adverse Weather conditions which are of higher turbulence; higher Storm surges, concentrations of Acid Rain, and expansion of Drought areas. Current models do not integrate such data into Climate models.

One may ask how We can engineer a uniform spread of Carbon sequestration. A most important venue would start with separating Carbon emissions into Deep Deposit v. Surface Carbon emissions. I prefer a Carbon Tax to Carbon Permits, but in either case, said taxation or Permit should only apply to Deep Deposit Carbon emissions. This Separation would establish a preference to Surface Carbon energy sourcing, and provide the Capitalization of Surface Carbon utilization for Energy. This will not be as difficult as Most think, as Wood Chipping practices are very widespread, and monitored (timed) Wood Chip furnaces can be designed for sufficient Temperatures for Heating and Energy production. The same effort could be exhibited for the burning of Sewage and Garbage Product.

Public involvement could be engendered by an allowance of Property taxes to be paid in 60lb. Bags of Wood Chips–at a monitor rate of say $6/bag. Local Governments could replace Deep Deposit Carbon emission for Heating and Energy for Surface Carbon emission. Local landowners would plant fallow lands to Trees and Bushes, while the 60lb. Bags of Wood Chips could be produced for about $4/bag. Lawn Products would reduce in consumption, pumped Water would reduce, Carbon sequestration would increase, and Deep Deposit Carbon emissions would reduce. Overall Temperatures over Urban areas would reduce, as would intense Smog and Greenhouse levels, and Wind pattern flows would normalize to greater degree. The Energy bill of Local Government could be reduced by a probable 60% of Heating Costs, and 20% of Energy Costs at a comparable rate to Deep Deposit Carbon pricing. lgl
