Re: you forgot carbon fixing

OK

But in the same way that fossil fuel, if the theory that it is the result of geologic stress on encapsulated biomass, is carbon neutral over time. Just a really loooong time. When I say into the ground I wasn't speaking about into the silica sand or clay that composes a portion f any soil but as the organic component of soil and although over time it would indeed return that carbon into the air assuming 100% oxidization, which once buried, may or may not be the case. I would be willing to bet that over the next hundred years, at least, this would still be a carbon negative transaction.

Looking forward to your take on this.
