1 cubikmeter of biorock has about 2.75 tons of mass, that means it needs about 2750 kWh (german wikipedia). With non-regenerative energie sources this will cause about 700 up to 1200kg CO2. Even there would be regenerative Energy sources it will need a lot of energy for comparison. 1 cubikmeter of concrete needs 280kg cement. That causes 170kg CO2, if cement would be producet with solar heat it would be only 100kg/cubikmeter. per cubikmeter of material biorock needs 6 times more energy, tha means it needs althoug more energy farms. That makes it more expensive, it needs more space, it causes more grey-energy... further its not practicable, because you dont get an powder you can make diffrent concrete you like, you get massiv blocks and they need to be transportet what needs more energy and so on... and last it grows only a few centimeters per year not so good if i decide now to build something when i have to wait 1-2 years till i get my things... all data i used are taken by german wikipedia, everyone who like can recalculate this data. p.s. in biorock (en) is written tha 1kg cost 1.1 $ when one kWh cost 0.05$, tha would mean that one cubikmeter needs 60 000 kwh and not 2750 how i calculatet because of the data of the german wikipedia, whit thid data you easily see that it would be much worse! (more than 20 times...)
He's quite right.The seasteading institute has more details on this topic. See
link. I'd rewrite the article myself, but I'm not much good at either editing or writing

I have just modified 10 external links on
Biorock. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit
this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

@
Jeth888: - Agree that that first paragraph looks promotion, and that it probably isn't support by the reference provided. If I edit/remove that first paragraph, does that take care of your concerns, or are there other areas? Do you want to go through and add {{Promotional source}} or {{Dubious}} in-line tags everywhere you see issues? That way we can go through and clean up the issues.

At the moment, there is no factual basis for the above accusation of a non-neutral tone in the first three sentences of the first paragraph of the
History section. It's a simple analysis: The first sentence is a simple factual statement, nothing commercial or otherwise is being promoted. The same applies to the second and third sentences, and the third sentence supports its claim of an environmental disaster with the appropriate, linked source. Only the fourth sentence lacks a source for its claim, so I have initially removed that sentence. It can be reinstated at a later time with a supporting link.
On a second point, it should also be noted that the above discussion has become dormant, since the tag is now over one year old and no support for the initial claims has come forward. Therefore, I am removing the POV template.
I propose to move some of the content of this article to
Electric reef (which is currently a redirect here). I suggest that we move content that relates to reefs and reef formation, leaving behind the content relates to the Biorock process and to the development of that process. I will wait for comments for a few days before doing any work on this and invite people to discuss the change with me first.
