Why is anyone still on there?

At least it’s hypothetically possible to create with less net carbon impact than fossil fuels. It still has a long way to go, but we’ve got to invest in things that aren’t practical right now if we ever want aviation to decarbonize.

This comment is the perfect example of how everything goes to shit in this world. It should be in a museum.

To build on this, the oceans absorb carbon from the air. As we remove CO2 from the ocean that differential becomes higher and more CO2 comes out of the air.

Remove the subsidies and institute an actual carbon price mechanism, and we’ll see how quickly people begin to switch over.

It’s hypothetically possible that we could hack biology enough to become functionally immortal, but do you really want that? Considering the impact 90 year old Senators are having I’m just imagining an ever more out of touch gerantocracy. Imagine young people being born into a world where no one ever retires or dies, and their opinions are fixed based on what they experienced 100 years ago. Change is good.

Soon it will be possible to cling to the broken shell of what you once were, a mere vessel for arthritis pain and bittersweet memories of a time when you used to be able to walk to the bathroom. Hooray!
