    Wind and Solar are “renewable” to a certain scale. If you dump gigantic wind farm in the middle of a jet stream, for example, you can impact downstream climate cycles.

      that’s why we could be aware of all the externalities.

      solar could be deployed on the ocean but that will certainly lower sea temperatures.

      let’s terraform intentionally rather than just accidentally.
