AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the concept of using nanobots as a method for delivering calcium and magnesium to the atmosphere to combat sulfur dioxide and acid rain. Participants question the necessity of nanobots, suggesting that traditional methods of dispersing these minerals could be equally effective. Concerns are raised about the current limitations of nanobot technology, including the lack of self-replicating capabilities. The efficiency of using nanobots versus simpler methods, such as particulate application, is also debated. Overall, the conversation highlights skepticism about the practicality and advantages of nanobots for this environmental solution.

I red something about Nano-Desulferizer, the article said something about how people can send Nanobots that carry calcium and magnesium to the atmosphere and react with SO2 to produce salts, which prevent the acid rain..

I wonder why Nanobots, why they can not just send something else that carries Calcium and Magnesium to the atmosphere. what is the advantage that only nanobot has.

I am sorry if I made grammar errors

Thank you for helping

Can you post a reference? I've never heard of this. There's also no way it'd be any more efficient (given that there are no self-reproducing nanobots, or general nanobots in existence, to the best of my knowledge) than just particulating calcium or magnesium powder or dumping these into rivers and lakes (where they'll take up acid once it rains out).
