Which plants aren't autotrophic?As for the autotrophic non-plants -- I guess you are referring to algae and some bacteria?

The chemical intervention is only sufficient to get the excess of CO2 out of the atmosphere, which would get the surface pressure down to maybe 3 bar of mostly N2. From there, we'd still have to cool the atmosphere down far enough to support thermophilic autotrophic microbes in the new surface lakes.

I'm not particularly interested in an entirely autotrophic diet.

Recently, I built a steady state feasibility model for growing, harvesting and extracting lipids from algae using heterotrophic and autotrophic systems.
