Like that’s ever stopped us from doing things for profit?
Honestly, that’s what’s holding us back. Make climate repair profitable, and the climate will be fixed inside of a decade.
I mean, that would be a lot of iron…
Believe it or not, it’s a laudable goal. Cow feces is responsible for about 40% (yes, really) of methane production worldwide, and methane is several times more impactful as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. I called bullshit (heh) the first time I heard these stats, too, but they’re real.
Most of the legitimate “block sunlight” proposals involve cloud seeding or spreading long-lasting particulates high in the upper atmosphere. The goal of these projects is to reflect 1-2% of sunlight, which would significantly cool the climate, but plants would hardly notice. In fact, organisms like reef systems would greatly appreciate it, as they’re dying off at an extraordinary rate.

If I had to guess, I’d say they’re trying to maximize their market cap. It’s no secret that they’re looking for a buyer and/or eyeing and IPO. The more profitable they can seem before that, the more money Huffman can walk away with.
can Joe Schmoe hosting a rinky-dink Lemmy instance do the same?
So rinky-dink that he doesn’t have a proper backup system, right? One unfortunate accident, and there’s no data to subpoena.
0·1 year agoNo need to hide in a cave, bro, but screenshots-of-screenshots, at least as far as I’ve seen lately, are already a part of “the culture.” There’s no winning this war; you can only hope to survive it.
Always loved the snowman comics, even though they got pretty dark over time.
Why does the UK National Archives have a baggage allowance?
I’m not playing defense for anyone. I’m recognizing that deconstructing the corporate money-making machine will take longer than we have to fix the more immediate problem of killing off our biosphere, so working with the system, broken as it is, may be the only way forward.
