fertilising

By some external force, Cronenberg's characters are routinely thrown into a radical new mode of existence, and it's not necessarily a negative experience: Videodrome's toxic TV transmissions create "the new flesh"; Crash's auto accidents are described as "fertilising".

This "geoengineering" approach – including schemes such as fertilising the oceans with iron to stimulate algal blooms – would have been dismissed as a distraction a few years ago but is now being seen by the majority of scientists we surveyed as a viable emergency backup plan that could save the planet from the worst effects of climate change, at least until deep cuts are made in CO2 emissions.

Whale droppings could help fight global warming by 'fertilising' the oceans, according to a new study.

They explain proposals for reducing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as fertilising the oceans with iron to stimulate the growth of phytoplankton, which absorb carbon dioxide, or directly capturing CO2 from the air using chemical absorbers.

So, advocates say, by 'fertilising' the ocean surface we could reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and reduce the rate of global warming.

The experiment involved "fertilising" a 300-square-kilometre (115-sqare-mile) area of ocean inside the core of an eddy -- an immense rotating column of water -- with six tonnes of dissolved iron.
