Well what about whales? And free Willy? I still can’t believe that poor creature is destined to live out its life as what looks like an ugly phallus (I cleaned up my language).

The virility angle is very complex as it's asking to unwind thousands of years of relatively continuous culture, but it does not have anything to do with Taoism, Buddhism, nor Confucianism in any meaningful sense for this context. I have written and deleted several things since writing that sentence, but I am just going to stop there.

Yea, sorry if I crossed any lines, that certainly wasn't my intention. Trying to keep it light, but the crazy often delves off into serious matters eventually. It was pure speculation on my part, although I'm sure culture, religion and many traditions are linked in one fashion or another. I think sometimes over the millennia traditions sometimes lose their original meanings and take on a legendary status, that can reflect an irrational disconnect from the realities or meanings that existed earlier. Every generation has to eventually define for themselves, within certain historical framework who they are, what they've stood for, and where they are headed.

ie. causing extinction of an entire species would be sacrilege to those who profess Taoism, Buddhism, nor Confucianism. But this the very question that the Asians currently face, that and the existence of nature itself (as we currently know it) is at stake. All the poison of the 70's (dead rivers, lakes, bays, heavy metal contamination) here in the US, is all happening in Asia right as we speak, on a much wider scale, but the world continues driving with the headlights off.

The entire dynamic is very complex, but...religion is really different for most of the world. The idea of it being a belief as opposed to a practice is kind of just the start (they focus much more on practice there...). As such, the notion of sin or sacrilege doesn't really make sense in the way Westerners conceive it.

But yeah. Probably best to move on.

How much sucrose can an average sized plant's microbles metabolize in a few days to a week, anyone have any ideas? Or how much carbon can be sequestered from the root end of metabolism in a given timeframe?

What's the best carbon sources? (I"m using humics/fluvics/calcium carbonate and wood ash)

Up to 40% of all plant species get a portion of their carbon from fungi living in their roots, a new study suggests. ... Plants use these fungi to collect a significant amount of their carbon from other plants while performing photosynthesis.

Some plants also collect vital carbon via fungi living in their roots, fungi that are part of a vast underground network of fungi—the Wood Wide Web. Plants use these fungi to collect a significant amount of their carbon from other plants while performing photosynthesis.

So far, researchers have demonstrated a transfer of carbon from fungi in herb-paris (Paris-quadrifolia) and white anemone. The findings open up the possibility that roughly 40% of all plant species have their own photosynthesis supplemented through carbon compounds transmitted via fungi to their roots.

They base this estimate on the fact that the type of fungal symbiosis (mycorrhiza) that herb-paris and white anemone have is very common and found in roughly 40% of all green plant specie
