    Once again, when we talk about geoengineering we are focusing on blocking the suns rays instead of removing CO2 from the air. How is blocking out the sun going to help with ocean acidification? That’s caused by CO2 dissolving in the water, not by global temperatures. Every fucking time. Do these people never think?

      These people don’t want to upset their masters, otherwise their political opponent will get funding and they’ll be out of a cushy job. Also, they probably have some wealth stashed away and think they wont be affected by climate change, as for the common people, they give zero fucks about them.

      This is an expensive bandaid that will or will not work, and adress merely one of the problem caused by human industrialisation, it doesnt adress soil depletion for an example…
