We leave that up to the market. We will mandate that you paint your roof and we will fine you if you don't, but it's up to you to find and purchase the paint.

once again i am pitching LEO bombs to disburse semi-permanent reflective particles above the atmosphere, where they belong

no upkeep, no dirty airplanes, just a long lasting reflective blanket around the world keeping humans inside the atmosphere, where they belong

make them out of spinning shurikens so they shred anybody who tries to leave

Same, I love to study the potential futures of the world's Great Powers in a climate-changed future.

We'll start with a previous book quote from Alfred W. McCoy, before moving back to Gwynne Dyer.

I would even appreciate further research material to work with.

Thought about your post when I read the tweet
