Heres a flight into pre-history....{tongue firmly in cheek}

Around 20,000 years ago,the atlantians found themselves in a bind,their energy source,which had allowed them to reach the same effective level of civilization as we enjoy today,produced carbon dioxide,just as we do.Their scientist,found the same way of pulling carbon from the atmosphere as we have,though biochar.This began the process of trapping the carbon in the soils,and acting as a enriching process of the poor jungle soils

Although the rest of their civilization collapsed,the use by pre-historic tribes in the amazonian forest of biochar,allowed a "new"way of life to develope...and new civilizations,and the great wheel turned again...

Thanks Sonny. Nice story. Would those be the Atlantic Atlantians, The Sunken Isle west of Wales Atlantians, The Aztalan Atlantians, The Minoan Atlantians, or the UFO Atlantians?

My vote is the Minoans had it the best. All those others were so ersatz; they probably happened after the Minoans spread their version of Fox News around the globe.
