Geoengineering is just another version of "we'll invent some future technology that will solve all of this."

Agreed. I've always read geo engineering to be up there with carbon capture as bullshit.

Even the "modest" cloud seeding or reflective crap in the atmosphere had the addendum of making enormous chunks of the global south unlivable. Which makes them read more as fantasy implements of mass genocide than anything remotely palliative.

I implore you to not dismiss carbon capture as a whole as bullshit. Don't let crackkkers make you think it's a magic "solution"

I love the concept of geoengineering, but it shouldn't be used as an excuse to not address the problem
