    I mean the effects of climate engineering as pretty much impossible to predict completely. I’m not sure you can even rule out for sure that it’d effect Africa if they did some climate engineering in Alaska.

    Even if you have most of the factors - with those kinds of things there’s always an off-chance that it interrupt bird migration and that fucks up something else and then suddenly it has an impact on air temperatures and a lot of stuff changes.

    Relying on climate engineering instead of trying to prevent the catastrophe that’s coming is just stupid…

    could.

    What a BS article. It doesn’t even explain what paper used what mechanism for this conclusion. Baity headline, article mostly talks about something else, and the main thing isn’t properly explained.

    I could always build a model that shows something something could.

    I could also build a model showing that geo-enginerring by one region will be beneficial to the other regions.

    Now what?

      The whole article can be boiled down to ‘America bad, Europe Good!’
