Big hoopla over more (in)famous climate change denier/delayer nonsense reviewed on Grist, these superfreaks want geoengineering via water spraying ships? The ocean water spraying "ships" better be wind/wave/ocean current powered energy platforms. Burning diesel fuel to spray the water isn't going to be a good idea. And of course this analysis leaves out the concept of increasing snow in winter over cold arctic regions, protecting ice caps and tundra from melting during the 24 hr sunlight of summer. Dark ocean water and tundra absorb solar energy, snow and ice reflect it. This scenario is more likely, let's say we decide we want geo-engineering? Throwing up particles into the upper atmosphere to block sunlight and produce cooling on the order of what happened in 1816 ("the year without a summer"). No need to employ a magical "garden hose" spraying sulfur into the atmosphere as the superfreaks tout. Volcanoes did that job in 1816 and are getting set to do it again. Land is rising due to magma pressure under Alaska. It was in check, pushed back by the gravity of glacial ice. As the ice melts the magma gets ready for a big blowout. Under Yellowstone the aquifer is drying up, drought and water wasting ag and cities are the culprits in this case.   more »
