The idea revolves heavily around the creation and deployment of several thin film-like silicon bubbles. The “space bubbles” as they refer to them, would be joined together like a raft. Once expanded in space it would be around the same size as Brazil. The bubbles would then provide an extra buffer against the harmful solar radiation that comes from the Sun.
:wut:
We don't need new tech to solve climate change, it's purely a sociological issue. We need new tech to mitigate the effects of climate change we already have done, but we could simply stop dumping co2 into the atmosphere. Also, we have the tech that can sequester atmospheric co2, it's called plants. We can literally just reforest places and stop eating as much meat. It's just not profitable.
It makes me so mad that people act like this isn't possible. We could all go outside and start rehabilitating topsoil tomorrow and we'd see huge effects within 10 years if not sooner.
we don't even need everyone to be on board with the plan. literally just the government. that's why we we have a fucking government. so that we don't have to mass mobilize to solve every problem individually.
