Grateful to be part of a multidisciplinary team working to make meaningful progress in carbon pollution removal by natural carbon recycling methods

"California paid in a lot more [to the federal government] than it got back — $83 billion in total. So did Washington state and much of the Northeast. Most red states were in the reverse position, getting much more from DC than they paid in return."

Thank you for following me and for taking the time to write Zen and the Art of ...

A long time ago, my calculus professor in high school suggested I read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

I'm an optimist that if enough people work together we can do this!

The CROPS android app (and the CROPS website) contain a learning section that is often useful in providing well organized information about climate change

It also explains the CROPS natural carbon recycling concept which eliminates the need for crop burning

Just a heads up that the CROPS team for #CarbonRemoval is releasing what we think is a bit of climate hope

The CROPS process is now summarized in an app available for Android smartphones
and the "learn more" button on our website

Google Play search for:

Modern agriculture captures and releases almost 10 billion tonnes of carbon every year

Sequestering 30% of that in the deep ocean each year will result in 3 billion tons of carbon being removed each year - half the net increase

We're ready to start scaling this approach, there is hope!

One of the advantages of the CROPS system is it eliminates the need for, and all the problems created by, crop burning

In South Florida, ‘black snow’ makes breathing difficult for some Black and Latino residents
After Florida State University published a study about the effects of burning sugar cane on marginalized communities, residents say it’s time to stop the practice.

David Casselman, the founder of Ecoflix the streaming platform for saving animals and the planet, was kind enough to do a podcast interview with me at the following link

I apologize up front for the bad puns

Here is a link to the article published by the University of California at Irvine about CROPS and my close friend Gregory Benford, who was one of the 3 originators of the Crop Residue Ocean Permanent Sequestration concept in 2001

We wish to thank the highly respected conservation magazine Woop Woop for their wonderful European coverage on what we're doing

We are excited that our natural carbon removal process will help mitigate climate change globally

@jtimmer.bsky.social

Just read your ARS article on ethical geoengineering and very much appreciate your efforts to educate and inform during a very unstable time for civilization

If you would be kind enough to follow me, I would like to DM you directly

Thank you and all best wishes, David

Thank you for what you're doing!

35 years ago I started participating in what is now called social media

30 years ago I built an online system that was ahead of its time based on virtual reality interaction between people

This is the first time I've seen it done right!

Crop Residue Ocean Permanent Sequestration (CROPS) is the natural carbon pollution solution capable of safely and permanently recycling carbon to the deep ocean bottom

CROPS stops crop burning and creates jobs with meaningful social justice

CROPS applies globally from indigenous to national levels
