LOHAFEX: trying to iron out the climate problem

There's an experiment going on to see if a major phytoplankton bloom can be instigated on a large scale in the ocean. That in turn, theoretically, could absorb masses of CO2 that is partly to blame for global warming. That experiment originates with a German research ship, now...
