We should start making clouds in the oceans again. I think they were protecting us.
I strongly recommend keeping this idea in your back pocket. There are a few ways to accomplish geoengineering to reduce solar gain with technology we have now. It will cost taxpayers a staggering amount of money, will likely punch down on poorer countries anyway through modified weather patterns, crop yields may suffer, air quality may get worse in ways you can't imagine, but it will work for a limited time. Right now it's a game of chicken where we want governments and big business to do anything else first. If we flinch and dim the skies, the petroleum industry will just burn more and faster, throwing away the time we just bought, delaying doomsday by a few decades instead.
People are already dying in "poorer" countries. We could do some clouds now to bring the temperature down to levels that aren't killing people.
I’m glad we were able to create plastic for the earth and help set the course for future wonders never before imaginable.

Edit: oof I read it completely wrong. Nothing to see here folks.
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about?
I had not anticipated "Oh shit that's a good point I should apply for a job with McKinsey" to be a takeaway that anyone would have to this post, let alone the assumed main takeaway from it.
Haha good meme
