Iron Oceans

Iron Oceans is an eBook in Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It can be found in the hallways of Panchaea's tower, on some boxes near a large window overlooking the ring section.
This eBook contains information about , a geo-engineering technology used at Panchaea to counter the effects of global warming.

Phytoplankton Stimulus & Global Warming
The moratorium called into action by the United Nations severely curtailed the leaps and bounds being made by scientists working on the concept of iron seeding as a manner in which global warming could be combated. Alarmist claims of damage to the ecosystem, so-called "nutrient shifting" phenomena and ill-researched statements stating that this method could actually increase greenhouse emissions have no basis in fact.
However, it is fortunate that the Corporate Sovereignty Act of and other exceptions to the UN advisory have allowed the development cycle of this important technology to continue.
The process works as follows:
Iron dust seeded across large expanses of ocean stimulate the growth of phytoplankton and their two-month photosynthesis bio-cycle - a process that draws carbon from the atmosphere and deposits it on the sea bed following the natural termination of the organism.
==Trivia==
 The mentioned moratorium on iron seeding is real. In May 2008, the ninth Conference of the Parties (COP 9) to the Convention on Biological Diversity adopted a decision to limit ocean fertilization experiments "until there is an adequate scientific basis on which to justify such activities, including assessing associated risks, and a global, transparent and effective control and regulatory mechanism is in place for these activities."
