Carbon Dysphoria and Woolly Mammoths
Not all carbon is bad; in fact, it’s necessary to life on earth. Nevertheless, Northwestern’s Engineering Department wants to incarcerate carbon in the soil and hopes to “determine whether plant-based organic matter gets trapped in the soil or feeds microbes which then respire carbon dioxide into the ever-warming environment.“ 1
Sounds very carbon dysphoric.
Others scientists point out that “current efforts to promote carbon storage in soil miss a key point: Not all soil carbon is the same . . . managing soil carbon effectively requires taking its differences into account.” 2
Thank goodness clearer heads are speaking out, leaving us free to move on to the woolly mammoth. You might be struggling to see a connection. Is there a woolly mammoth dysphoria? No, but woollys are hot right now. Researchers are figuring out how to clone them, claiming that “[r]eintroducing elephants with woolly mammoth traits could also help fight global warming by restoring ecosystems in ways that would help reduce the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere. . .”
Wow. There we have it. Woolly mammoths roaming the plains would reduce carbon emissions from the nasty soil. So, carbon jailers and Jurassic Park dreamers are chasing tempting government research cash. Those green dollars printed by a feckless government spending and borrowing at a rate that will make the US go the way of the woolly mammoth, unless our leaders wake up. Let’s vote for a 2024 alarm clock.
