  Rehabilitation of the earth's climate will only start in 100 years given the climate goals that countries have set for themselves today. This means that researchers must find another method to contain the climate disaster much sooner. A method that in principal is safe, and cools the planet without first requiring distant net-zero targets or impossible carbon emission reductions.  A measure that averts climate Armageddon today. Not in 100 years after millions of people have already lost their lives and livelihoods due to extreme weather events. That's the challenge I put to leaders, innovators, AI specialists, and climate enthusiasts. History shows that in 1962, US President John F. Kennedy challenged his country that before the decade is over, America should put a man on the moon and bring him safely back to earth. And it happened! Today the world must do the same and make a united effort from scratch to stop climate change and reverse global warming... within...

But for me his biggest contribution to democracy was that he had ran in that specific election, especially given that these were uncertain times of widespread population misery and acute mass poverty, a 9pm-5am curfew had been on for 10 years, Local Defense Unit gunshots could be heard in the middle of every night and the victims remains disappeared by dawn, bo...

I think Africa is being indirectly asked to demand climate reparations from cows. The white man is deeply concerned that it is cows farting too much, and the cumulative methane emissions from global cow farting is what is raising the world's average temperature by 1.5 degrees, thereby melting polar ice sheets, raising sea water levels, and causing extreme weather events like floods and droughts across Africa.
