Sounds like a plan, and just because a bunch of Colorado civil service academics can\'t get a handle on it, doesn\'t mean it can\'t be made workable. It takes private industry pursuing profits to get the right kind of people working on it.
NO2 is a killer:
\"Even harder to measure are emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas released by soil microbes digesting nitrogen fertilizer that accounts for about 6% of total climate warming. \"
The global warming potential of N2O is almost 300x that of CO2 of the same mass, and it persists in the atmosphere for 100 years. That\'s a pretty good reason to minimize fertilizer use, something JL thinks can be used with reckless abandon.
The methane is the compost/ decomposition product well-known for its death toll.
Eventually, satellite data in combination with an AI- assist will tame this challenge.
