Biden admin wants to block the sun

[Splinter the boss]

That's how most people think, unfortunately, for ex most people would rather entertain the idea of becoming a multi-planetary species, hence the look for other earth-like planets rather than fixing what we already have here, the right way.

Exactly. It's the denial of reality and a refusal to attempt or try better solutions so there is the drastic attempt at a 'solution' you only saw villains try in comic books. Rather then admit our lifestyles and need for instant gratification and convenience are the drivers of the problems and something that needs to change. OK, fossil fuels are fueling climate change, but so is our desire to digitize and electrify everything which is a huge energy hog because it not only still relies on electricity generation by coal and oil, but also mining for rare minerals and metals (which tends to be from dodgy countries that like to use a lot of coal and oil with mining.)

As an example, you go on reddit on one of the sustainability subreddits and they're all for sustainability... until it is suggested by someone that increasing digitalization is also part of the problem. (That person gets downvoted.) Emissions were less when many things were more unconnected and computers were there but were not as dominant in life. People want to save the planet until it interferes with their soft padded lifestyle. Then they go for ridiculous things like blocking out the sun rather then give up comfort, even when it is obvious it is just as part of the problem.

Ah, yes, living in a pit, eating bugs, having electricity 2 hours per day, no fresh water or food. But the planet is safe! YAY!

That's so not what we are saying lol. No one wants to go back to the cave times, but we are pretending the solutions are way out there, and grandiose, and just out of comic books and that we need to play God, rather than look
At our way of life and realize we are part of the problem. Sun has existed for couple billion years, it was never the problem

This is the most retarded thing I've ever heard. This is literally a generic Bond villain plan. Biden needs to be locked up he has committed treason and should be publicly executed next to his treasonous ass son.

That is not some of the "greens" state.
And in general, its hard to see your statements in a different light.

News at 11 - people always played gods.
So far it worked for us, warts and all. There is a little doubt that humanity will persevere through its ingenuity and technological progress, unless it will go with naysayers, luddites and fear-mongers, who are perpetually scared that next big thing "gonna kill us all".

I beg to differ: have you heard of sun radiation? Solar cycles?
Also, it is not about sun. Its like the least of our problems. It is more about climate, except it always had been changing throughout the years, even before humans. What are multiple extinctions in the history of Earth?

Agree to disagree, but there’s no way I’m ever going to believe that, reducing the potency of the suns rays over our planet is a solution or will ever be a solution that is permanent, safe and without consequences to things such as other life on our planet, not just smart bipedals, but entire ecosystems. Everything on this earth is interrelated and disrupting a single factor such as the suns heat, no way this isn’t deadly.
