DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid in-person and online event. Pre-registration i
 s required for either.\n\nAchieving zero net emissions of carbon dioxide (
 CO2) is not enough to restore the climate. It is important that we also re
 duce the current atmospheric CO2 level of 420 ppm to the historically-safe
  pre-industrial level of below 300 ppm. The most practical way to achieve 
 this goal appears to be the use of ocean iron fertilization to stimulate p
 hytoplankton uptake of carbon dioxide in strategic locations.\n\nIn this t
 alk\, David Snyder will discuss this method\, which is based on data from 
 natural processes including hundreds of thousands of years of climate data
 \, and observations from the 1991 Pinatubo and 2022 Tonga volcanic eruptio
 ns. He will also describe a pilot project conducted with modern measuremen
 t\, reporting\, and verification technologies\, including instrument buoys
  and satellites\, which will help to confirm the approach and refine its m
 ethodology.\n\nSpeaker(s): David Snyder\, \n\n673 South Milpitas Blvd.\, M
