From that article:
“On the one hand, it’s good because we know that today’s global warming will eventually be canceled out through this stabilizing feedback,” says Constantin Arnscheidt, a graduate student in MIT’s Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences (EAPS). “But on the other hand, it will take hundreds of thousands of years to happen, so not fast enough to solve our present-day issues.”
Regardless, whoopdee dee, they have geologic chemical signatures showing silacates absorb carbon, and when theres more carbon, there's more of it getting absorbed. What next, lakes get bigger with more rain?
Maybe because I skimmed through, but how does the 'regulatory mechanism' counter the effects of less than normal CO2 levels in the atmosphere, like now - as there has been an unexplained downturn in atmospheric CO2 for the last 35 million years, and despite what the Global Farters say, Earth should be WARMER now. Last interglacial, 70% of Greenland lost its glaciars within 1000 years of its onset, here we are 10,000 years waiting, and it's the reverse - 70% still frozen under ice, despite all that "losing avfootball field's worth every blah blah blah." Much of Florida should be under the sea as well, by several feet, coral reefs growing atop like it always had before, building new land. Instead we have sinkholes and subsiding land, so Florida is actually in effect getting washed away into the sea.
The article reminds of the Gia Hypothesis - which posited that the planet itself was alive, and self-regulating in the long term.
