gollark: A complicating factor here is that whatever process you need to either remove the oxygen from earth or bind it in some chemical will probably run less efficiently as the oxygen content declines.
gollark: Wikipedia puts the mass of the atmosphere at 5.15e18 kg.
gollark: I was just thinking "hmm, big number".
gollark: You would also have to get rid of plankton and algae and random photosynthetic bacteria and whatnot.
gollark: Giant fires everywhere? Plant-destroying bacteria/viruses/nanotech?
