    "The process does not have to be wildly expensive; in a report last month, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change suggested that a fleet of high-flying aircraft could deposit enough sulfur to offset roughly 1.5 °C of warming for around $1 billion to $10 billion per year"

          global warming comes swinging, scientists put funny dust in the air thats supposed to offset the warming but instead plunges the earth into eternal super-cold winter, willy wonka the kid who succeeded willy wonka as an adult decided to build a giant train that goes around the whole world which became very convenient for rich people to jump ship into, but under the hood theres a pretty brutal worker conditions to keep the train so nice for the rich people, then the movie happens and it's very good so go watch it.

          edit: wrong wonka lmao

            hm, ok. Though the premise seems questionable, I don't think it's even possible to accidentally create an ice age with this much CO2 in the air

              I think the chemicals in the atmosphere isn't even the biggest logic flaw there but answer me this: how many other worker uprising movies exist that are also entirely set on trains? I rest my case that snowpiercer is the best movie ever made :traingang:

                yea I'm not knocking the show, just questioning the idea of global cooling/ice age happening as a result of global dimming. I just don't think it's even possible.
