For now... Do you really think they're immune to enshitification if they become more popular?

They'll even do things like paying off regulators so that they repeal laws that limit profit
You're obviously just lazy and don't want to work...

Hahaha exactly 😂😂
I still don't get the reasoning behind these sort of geo engineering projects. Let's say, best case scenario, it works wonders and cools the planet significantly.
The fact that we found a "solution" to the warming temperatures will justify the actions if the corporations pumping tons of CO2 and methane into the atmosphere. If anything, it will encourage them to pollute more, as there is now a way to solve the problem.
De-growth is the only way to actually solve the problem. But since it's not profitable, it won't happen under the current economic system.
Really fun game. A bit barren, but I guess a post-apocalyptic world would be.
I remember reading a study from Japan a few years ago. It related the country's percent GDP investment in renewables vs power consumption of the population over time. The conclusion was, that the more GDP they invested in renewable power generation, the more overall power was available, which the population consumed.
Old power sources didn't go away. There is just another source available. It's an addictive effect, not a replacement of power sources.
I tried searching for the article again a few months later, but I couldn't find it.. I wouldn't be surprised if it was removed or hidden, considering it is objective evidence against being able to buy our way of this problem.
Progress.... We should keep using the same methods to stop fossil fuel companies. That'll show em
Same. I consider them a marvel of engineering and an extremely useful tool. But, like any tool, they can be used incorrectly and cause damage.
I'm hoping to be fully self-hosted by then.
