It's a shame this business got mixed up with geoengineering because it is something that should be done on it's own merits.
Humans fish the seas. As a result they remove vast amounts of elements from the materials circulating in the ocean biosphere. We are going to fish, and remove elements, particularly iron, from the sea. We damn well should put it back. When a ship comes in with a load of fish and an estimated amount of iron in the fish, the next trip out they should be required to take an equivalent amount of iron out with them. Or buy credits from someone who does this as a business. It's not like it would be a significant cost burden on fishermen. And if it has positive effects on the catch, they should be overjoyed to do it. Any minor effects it has on CO2 is just a fortunate happenstance.
