#geoengineering The government is stealing from you, and has made some BS research to do this. This is not evidence of chem trails or any effective climate engineering - which at the current state of human technology, is akin to peeing in the Atlantic Ocean to cause sea level rise. CO2 and carbon emissions are a climate scam, in the same way that geoengineering is a scam. There aren’t enough aircraft with enough lifting capacity, by several orders of magnitude, to put a significant amount of anything in the atmosphere. Yes, you may see dozens of planes per day in your tiny piece of sky over your city, but the world is much, much bigger than you intuit. I have a unique perspective on just how big the planet is, and how tiny we, and our planes are, in comparison. Not to mention the size of the sun itself, and the amount of energy that reaches the earth from the sun in 7 days, is more energy than humans have used in the entire history of humanity since we first started using fire. As much energy reaches the earth from the sun in 1 day, as humans have harnessed in the last 25 years (9125 days) Let’s start with some first principles, instead of conclusions. This “theory” is literally poisoning the well of knowledge and sunlight of truth that bitcoin represents. I’m open to any rebuttals.
