What I'm saying is its ridiculous to be overly scared of potential solutions, or parts thereof. Too scared to even allow the testing is contemptably too scared for survival, and as malicious to the rest of us as those billionaires who want most of us to die.
A curious term. We knew what we had to do a long time ago, but didn't.
Now that we're on a likely terminal path, we're suddenly willing to try unknown, unproven radical treatments and the only comfort we have is that without such radical interventions we're already dead, so there is very little left to lose.
Edit: I'm not so much against SRM as I am disapointed we didn't do the right things when we could have.
Well, I feel better now don't you?
Who;s that "we"? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?
Nobody asked me, or any of us. It's just another top-down phony "solution" pushed by the fossll-fuel industry to deflect attention from stopping greenhouse pollution at its source.
Well no. It's actually a desperate hail mary. Everything is an excuse to keep oil going, but SRM is legitimate science. Just reckless as fuck.
