Twelve small-scale experiments over the past decade in several ocean locations (red dots) consistently showed that intentional iron additions do result in phytoplankton blooms that help draw down carbon dioxide from the air. But the experiments have not determined how much carbon is transferred and sequestered in the deep sea, rather than quickly recycled back to the atmosphere.

Fish fertilizers are some of the best products for building soil health. It's good to see a bad situation turned into something good. I hope they educate the public about the value of fish waste in agriculture. Great idea! Fish fertilizers are some of the best products for building soil health.
