Do we really need all these mountains?

[-] Draegur@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

We will as the sea levels rise. Displacing more water will also NOT help...

We will just put salt on the water so it dries up

No, no, you don't understand. It's not displacing, it's replacing. Less water, more land.

Ah yes, the alchemical art of literally transmuting H2O into SiO2 that everyone knows.

Put the spare water into orbit, where it'll freeze and give us rings like Saturn!

Omg let's do that anyway

kepler syndrome go brrrrrrrrrrr :3

especially what with our big beautiful moon, a ring system at an orbit high enough to not immediately endanger any craft we send up would be destabilized into an unrecognizable state very quickly.... which would send a good bit of its debris down into dangerous altitudes close to earth x_x;

maybe what we need to do is turn luna into a ring system...?

Just put it where the mountains used to be in a mountain shaped container.

Easy.
