And bad for everything but the algea is bad for the ecosystem the algea relies on to live

Algae itself needs a functioning ecosystem to survive, to much algea will cause it to kill itself due to overpopulation (e.g. using up resources and dead algea not being cleaned up) while in a small scale humans can care for the algea, taking the place of the ecosystem, for any large area this would be unfeasible and the ecosystem including the algea would collapse.

A benifit of biodiversity is greater resilance to change, by selecting for the growth of specific algea using iron you cause other algea/plant that rely on the prior ecosys to die out (including those reliant on other organisms which died). this group of less diverse algea will be more susceptible to change, (diseases or environmental change) and as most of the algea in the world will be similar, most of the algea in the world could get wiped out in one go.

So the likely outcome would be an initial spike in carbon capture before the environment becomes unsuitable, collapses, and most of the algea dies.

So all im all at any meaningful scale in the sea this is and will always be, a terrible idea.

(A better idea would be lots of small manigable algea tanks which could realistically be maintained and won't affect the current diversity, diseases could also not spread between them. This would be expensive but could actually work as a long term solution)

Thank you!

Also how does a seed library work? is it where people bring there excess grown seeds to share with others, because if so that's so cool, I wish we had a thing like that here

Thank you for your lovely reply. I'll try and answer as best as I can.

I stumble across most seed's while doing other things in the forest such as tramping or pest trapping. While the Kowhai seeds I grab from a beautiful old naturally bonsaid tree on an island I do conservation on.

The idea of eco-sourcing is that plants of the same species have regional variation which makes them better suited/more benificial for that region. So we want to plant planted with seed that came from a wild plant in the ecological region they are planted in. (Another benifit of wild plants is more genetic diversity).

The nursery is purely for conservation and is partnered with our department of conservation they sell plants at a price low enouph to buy the stuff to grow more plants and everyone there is a volenteer growing plants for fun (mostly lovely old people).

Ive been eco-sourcing some nikau, kowhai, kareao and puriri seeds to bring to our native plant nursery where I volunteer at. Im also going to try and grow some kareao in my room.

For harder ceramics like these a diamand coated bit (they aren't as expensive as the name makes the seem), always use water and drill through super slow so it doesn't crack (a minute or longer). Good luck!!

I either drill holes or for round ones put a smaller plastic draining pot inside

It all runs on good ol' clean green energy, and with the new turbines installed we're really seeing a rembursed energy of our exhausted ADP residents. They had been beginning to complain saying "I might just move to the mitochea with the wages us ADP get there". But I just said to those crazy fools "ya fools dont wanna go down that dark, dark road. want to know where the mitochondria get all their energy from? They steal it, steal it from right under our bloody noses, steal the suger we put our blood sweat and tears into". Most stay, but sometimes I feel a few sneak away in the night.

But you wanna know a secret, I've heard rumors.. rumors that in the mitochondria ADP once plump with riches will be taken against their will, kidnapped straight from their fancy mansions.

The few that come back stuggle to recover, but many are never to be seen again.

Edit: grammer

Yea I did something similar on GNOME I mapped one of my mouse side buttons to be META and that way I could use it to access the overview and applications aswell as using side button + scroll wheel to switch workspaces.

I love it so much I have implemented the same functionality In cosmic and would do the same in KDE.

Its so delicate I love how the light shines through
