Reduces Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere

Reduces Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere through enhanced rock weathering.
Carbon dioxide in the air reacts with moisture in air to form acidic rain.
Acidic rain falls on specific minerals in rock and a chemical reaction captures CO2 to be washed into streams, rivers and oceans.
In the ocean, the CO2 reacts to form limestone that sinks to bottom of ocean where CO2 is stored indefinitely.
