There is enough marine sediments to cover the earths continents under a 2 km thick layer. You could practically make new continents with it. Expand earth for human habitation, replenish farmlands. The continent of Zeelandia could be brought above the oceans making millions of acres for humans and animal life alike.
How do we make use of this resource?

you're retarded. you need energy to dig it all up and distribute it across the world. what source of energy are you using?

You could flocculate it higher in the water column with air lift dredges with floating nuclear powered ships where it could caused huge plankton blooms. Then anadromous fish with could carry biomass into rivers where it could flow downstream creating large river deltas.

Nuclear.
The very rich do not want nuclear bc they do not want rapid resource useage. More energy useage = more consumption = certain critical resource shortages = malthusian global conditions = massive warfare.

The *only* answer is rapid mass space exploitation ASAP or billions die in continued poverty. They refuse this bc they are fucking cowards, afraid that spacers become independent of earth governments.

Resources from space are even more expensive, difficult, and energy intensive

Or we embrace low birthrates which would naturally over time reduce the population down to something more compatible with the easily available resources.
