As a layman on this topic, but assuming the gathering requires fossil fuel and probably lots of it given the scale, is it feasible to do the gathering in a net negative carbon way?
I feel like anything I hear about that teases net negative sequestration at scale eventually falls apart or is found to be akin to a perpetual energy machine that eventually is debunked.
If only there were a carbon-free method to move vessels across the water.
Maybe we could put a wind turbine on the boat, generate electrical power, and use that to power an onboard motor!
On good days you could use a solar collector to boil water and generate electricity with it
