Making the sky grey would be very depressing way to address climate change, and likely still not enough.

When they first announced the launching of solar reflecting particles into the atmosphere to cool down the planet I thought it was pitched by a youtuber or someone

I really didn’t expect to see it was Harvard

They should just harvest a huge block of ice from a comet and drop it in the ocean.

Makes sense.

  1. Create a massive rocket
  2. Burn a massive amount of rocket fuel to get it into space
  3. Surround the comet ice in enough artificially made heat resistant materials so it doesn’t burn up in the atmosphere
  4. Use more rocket fuel to angle the giant ball of ice so it doesn’t burn up on re-entry
  5. Burn some more fuel to slow down its descent once inside the atmosphere so it doesn’t crash into the earth, ending all life in the immediate area
  6. Drop the ball of unsalted ice in the ocean

Hahhaha. Totally missed that. I just assumed it was a joke.

Fun fact, the kinetic energy a comet would gain from falling into the Earth's gravity well is around 60MJ/kg, more than two orders of magnitude greater than the energy which would be absorbed by it melting (0.33MJ/kg).

The school that had 22000 stolen corpses from indigenous and enslaved people as of 2022 didn’t consider indigenous people? Shocking.

When you just google “harvard human remains”, there’s so many different results, you have to be more specific. Did you mean the 7000 bodies they kept for eugenics research, the organ smuggling ring in 2023, the book bound in human skin?, the routine grave robbing during the 1800s?

Netherworld inconsolable. Punjab overjoyed.

I’ve watched Snowpiercer. I know how this ends.

unfortunately we also know how runaway greenhouse effect ends.

Sci-fi has assured me that Venus has the hottest babes, but they’re awful cagey about what kind of hot.

Why not test the reflective aerosol plume over Harvard?
