Id like lemmings take on how they would actually reduce emissions on a level that actually makes a difference (assuming we can still stop it, which is likely false by now, but let’s ignore that)
I dont think its as simple as “tax billionaires out of existence and ban jets, airplanes, and cars” because thats not realistic.
Bonus points if you can think of any solutions that dont disrupt the 99%'s way of life.
I know yall will have fun with this!
Oh hell no. Lets not fuck with nature even more. We must not play god! Geoengineering might cause more problems than its use!
I agree and it concerns me how much geoengineering bro talk there is and responding to descent with luddites and your concerns are overdone its all good.
It’s the only viable option given how much we’ve fucked the planet up.
Stopping (not reducing) emissions won’t stop already ongoing feedback loops, it’ll just prevent going full Venus.
If human civilization simply ceased to exist it’d still take millions of years for temperatures to go back to pre-human levels.
Sequestering enough carbon or increasing albedo don’t seem like feasible options.
We need to put a shade between Earth and the Sun, it’s the only option that seems possible before we collapse, and it would achieve immediate results (of course it’d also give companies an excuse to keep pumping carbon into the atmosphere, since the problem would be “solved”, so we’d be back on track for Venus style runaway greenhouse effect in one or two decades).
We’re 100% fucked.
