Couldn't find that one, but here's a link on CO2 fertilization..,.

Appreciate it, but the author was referring to fertilizing land-based plants, and the prevailing evidence is that majority of CO2 sequestration occurs in the oceans (I see varying quotes, some around 50%).

And the oceans are responsible for suppkying 90% of our oxygen.

Thus, I have to stand by my view that the oceans are likely the most viable avenue for exploring fertilization and nutrient augmentation.

I know I sound like a broken record, but I'm not just not seeing any downside to such research and experimentation.

At least nothing that's not readily reversible.

And thus, it's a pragmatic, and rationale approach, IMO.
