Why do we talk about removing CO2 from the atmosphere but not trying to pull it out of the ocean?

What makes you think it would be significantly easier to filter out the carbolic acid from the ocean? The same difficulties apply, and water is much more viscous than air.

Didn’t carbon we’ve carelessly dumped in the atmosphere start as ocean life that sunk to the bottom, can’t we turbo charge that cycle?

[mjhay]

Not practically. We are talking about huge scales, such that the industrial production, transport, etc., would be as much of an environmental disaster as what it's trying to solve.

Because there is an homeostasic relationship between the co2 in the ocean and the air, and it always end up balancing out automatically.
