Climate I would
We all know that climate change is a dangerous change, which means taking strict measures to deal with it can be tempting. Build orders of the magnitude of the nuclear bomb, deeper than so far and deepen under the seabed.
Reporters Alex Wilkins Feedback’s attention gave attention to this little scheme. It is a brain Andrew HaverlyWhat he described his idea paper On January 11, it has been released in ARXIV, without an online warehouse review.
Haverly’s plan builds in an existing approach Stone wear wear. Rocks like Basalt react in the air with carbon dioxide, Removing greenhouse gas slowly and capturing the mineral form. By Such rocks to crushWe can Accelerate this chemical weather and accelerate CO2 Removal. However, even within the optimistic estimates, this will only be done Small part of greenhouse gas emissions.
I would like that. A decent nuclear explosion could reduce the large volume of the basal, allowing a large meteorogram of improved dust. Haverly proposes to bury the nuclear bomb below at least 3 kilometers south of the seabed. The surrounding rock would limit the explosion and radiation, minimizing the risk of life. But the explosion takes 30 years2 emissions.
The first obstacle identifies the required bomb scale. The largest nuclear explosion was Tsar Bomba, detonated by Urss in 1961: tnt had 50 equivalent megatons. Haverly wants a higher explosion, a device that has the benefit of Gigati, more than 1600 times of Tsar Bomba. Such a bomb, he writes solemn, “should not be taken lightly.”
How we build this thing, then transport to the south windy ocean, go down safely to the bottom of the sea and then send it to the bottom km, which is left as an exercise for the reader. Haverly would cost this effort to “about $ 10 billion”, which means your Buck would have many blows in light of the costs of climate change. However, feedback has no idea how it was created with that figure.
Anyway, no one Elon Musk.
Afterlife sneak peak
In such feedback, he lives a revelation through social media support. The latest recent x-namely kindness came @PallnandiAn occupational therapist and “unfair realistic”, published on January 12: “Photo of leak It is viral in social media. It is not surprising that Christians are so determined! “
The image of the assistant shows a city sculpted by white stone, the Hagia of Istanbul, the Coliseum of the Sophia Mosque, Rome and Rivendell Lord of the rings. Windows hundreds of golden yellow shadows. Above the city is a dark and dark sky that crosses the milk mode.
Therefore, Suggestions: If you wait long enough, a foolish claim will revert again.
This returns to at least 1994, outlandish News worldwide Named a story “Humble telescope photo“There was a fuzzy black and white image of a starfield, in the middle of the central bright shine, had a collection of great buildings. Anyone who remembers the gods of the gods Therera Films will have the right idea.
Should not be said without saying this image It wasn’t from HubbleOr even NASA, and it’s false. But it became viral recently in February 2024, after being Highlighted in videos In Instagram and Tiktok.
It’s not a year later, and a New image has a similar label Viral disappear. They have several reports point yellow The image looks AI-generated: Milky paths, in particular, has glitch-shaped patterns.
Feedback is a real problem, however, it looks like a terrible place. For beginners, the stars are glass, which assumes a distinctive lack of air. It seems cold freezing and structures like Adam Driver’s Architects Monomania’s character is like something Megalopolis. Sci-Fi Author Naomi Alderman Waded in Bluesky: “No animal or trees, or rivers or lakes, perhaps cold marble – is a dark sky.” It is a dreaded side neighborhood that meets the absolute rigid uniformity. “
Perhaps one day, we will get the iteration of this meme seems to be a nice place to spend the hope of passing eternity. But the feedback does not recommend maintaining your breath.
Fishy final
Press releases users to new book Ocean in the Ocean: Low-habitat lifestyleBy Sönke Johnsen. There, the author explains what we know from the surface of the sea in the wide volume of water, isolated on the air, seabed and continent shelves. What is the wonders of feedback, all your life in the place of gravity and a light variation of light levels in which there is and what is it down?
We don’t know, but we know that the illustrator of this fish fish is a Marlin Peterson.
