I saw a fascinating (to me anyway) show on Planet Green channel about a team of scientist that are testing ways to increase plankton in barren areas of the ocean. They think this would help with decreasing levels of CO2 and slow down the Greenhouse effect.
The link is to an article about the work.
One thing I thought was really cool was while the test was not a complete sucess (the tubes were ripped to shreds by the currents), one pump worked for about 56 hours. and within 12 days after that, a lot of marine life showed up in the area. Before the placement, there was no marine life at all there.
