    Ah! so all the (millions? of) tons of eroded limestone that get washed into the ocean every year isn't up to the job?

      Obviously needs to be a very specific type, manufactured by said oil companies.

            They are nicking my ideas again. I put this idea on my webtulipe science columnabout 4 years ago but I thought it was a joke. Still can't see how it isn't, how can being in seawater or any other water do anything but reverse the original process? Any chemists about?

            PS They will be nicking my idea of catching subsea hydrates in old Tesco carrier bags next.

              So to sum up, water absorbs CO2 and if you add lime it absorbs even more CO2. We live in a country that has a lot of lime in the ground, where it is always bloody raining, why are we worried about this climate change bollocks again???
