    God damn i hate this stuff.

    I remember this one ir somethibg like it where they thought using refridgeration to creat ice underwater would solve or slow the issue.

    Its just heat pumps! That's all refridgerstion is! It does cool an area, but it's a net gain in heat! An absurd ammount of heat it the goal is to make enough ice to serve the function of reflecting light

      Look, climate change is easy to solve, we've got a plan to just... uh... use leaf blowers on wind turbines. Give my think tank $10 million dollars and you can feel good that you're doing all that you can. Don't worry, we'll use it to figure out how to, like... shine flashlights on solar panels or something, idk. Just don't worry about it, we've got this handled.

    Petition to tie all neolibs to rocks and drop them out of a plane and into a valcano to see if the laws of gravity and thermodynamics still apply to them.

    New technologies and solutions to combatting the climate crisis are necessary & remind us of the importance of the people who fucking caused it in the first place

      Believing in magic technological solutions is important because it allows us not to do anything real and march towards our dooms.

        new studies show that believing in magic technological solutions rather than taking solid action widens profit margins for millionaires and allows them to create jobs*! we stan our ecological warriors uwu!
