Its crazy, I suppose you can recycle most of it but why not just reduce the amount of packaging in the first place

plus the fact that people will consume their bodyweight in chocolate

There was a book once called SuperFreakonomics sequel to Freakonomics that said that global warming could be combated by putting sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere, that would dim the effect of the sun and cool the planet, for relatively low cost.

I don't know how realistic it is.

Here's some links -

Oh that sounds genius. Let's but a toxic chemical into our breathing space... one that is naturally caused by the burning of fuels so it must be good... one that can easily convert into other harmful compounds... but it's for global warming

It's funny because people are talking here about the issue because of the disruptive tactics the protesters use. So it shows that those tactics work to some extent. But it is unfair because it sets a precedent that if anyone wants to get their cause on the news all they need to do is cause disruption.

It's what happens when a big volcano erupts.

I read another study by two engineers who work for Google, who researched renewable energy technologies for years, and basically concluded that current renewable technology had no chance of stopping warming, and the only hope was to invest a lot of money in research to find a new cheap low carbon energy technology.

https://ai.google/research/pubs/pub43326.pdf

The other option would for people around the world - not just in one country - to radically alter their lifestyles. It would mean emerging economies being kept back also, and this is all very unlikely to happen.

I'm gonna be so pissed off at being middle class when climate change only affects those in the middle, and no one else.
