Haber-Bosch may be disrupting billions year old nitrogen cycle, which would qualify as 'hinge' for earth history.

3) Ocean Afforestation via macro-algae forests covering 9% of the world’s ocean surface can produce sufficient biomethane to replace all of today’s needs in fossil fuel energy, while removing 53 billion tons of CO2 per year from the atmosphere, restoring pre-industrial levels. This amount of biomass could also increase sustainable fish production to potentially provide 200 kg/yr/person for 10 billion people.

Offsetting current carbon emissions would require some 50 trillion trees. An alternative offset would be to cultivate kelp forests. Kelp can grow at 2 feet per day, 30 times faster than terrestrial plants. Planting kelp across 9% of the oceans (4.5 x the area of Australia) could provide the same offset. Additionally, the kelp would support a fish harvest of 2 megatons per year and reduce ocean acidification. Large scale open ocean forestry would require engineered substrate and added nutrients.

If Kryder's Law holds, then by 2030 local hard drives will store petabytes (4x library of congress or 500 mp4 years). 32 terabyte thumb drives will cost $10. Routes around ISP's will be plentiful. How can copyright survive?

Is Kryder's Law also dead? (2x memory every 13 months) If not, we could plan for petabyte local memory by 2030 and exabytes 2040s.

> Bitcoin mining will consume all the world’s electricity by February 2020
TFA infers by Feb 2021 PoW will double total human electricity use. 38 months from now. By early 2024, we can burn 1,000x more. In 9 years we can burn 1,000,000 more joules per second than we do today. Hot. The idea is to make our world a more safe and secure place to store value?

If PoW energy use grows 10x year over year, in 9 years by 2026 PoW will burn a billion times more energy than today. More than all countries combined, right? By what year will PoW double global electricity use?

Save all the most meaningful data local. Route interest packets to communicate messages. Like the Endless Computer. Transport data over anything that moves. Checksum validate signed data. Trust. Named Data Networking.

Is cjdns more of same address-centric hosting? If y, would not NDN content-addressing be the more smarter internet fix?
