Prof. Guy www.McPhereson.com , a controversial figure, suggests that the end of the Anthropocene will start in a year, and all life will be wiped out by 2026. His suggestion is that we all live the best lives in the meantime.

Someone should make a movie where the upper classes keep themselves cool and fed with their money and power while the part of the lower classes that survive become climatized or somehow evolved to handle it. Then there's a revolution. There could be a conservative president with orange hair.

I know that's not really possible but it'd make a great movie and might make people think.

There will plenty of innovation to tackle the problem with many strides already made, but the government needs to ramp up investment in climate change as part of the defense budget because it is a national security matter. We'll be better positioned once Cheeto Benito is gone along with the rest of the GOP clown show.

He keeps trying to warn and educate...with some people nothing seems to work! Those people seem to have made up their minds, before they came to earth...funny thing about that!

Our best chance now is automation and AI. To minimize climate change will take one or more engineering project about as large as all previous engineering. Only AI will be able to do it.

Of course, sequestering CO2 is essential. That can be done by growing algae, composting it, and spreading it around the world to improve poor lands. Again, it must be a vast project that can sequester an amount per year, on the order of the carbon contained in a cubic mile of oil.

We also need to pump energy into space. Robots could spread white reflective biodegradable paint across the arctic tundra where ice would normally be, put white floats on the arctic ocean to simulate ice packs, lay down white tarps on tundra in the winter that would normally be covered by snow and remove them in spring.

Large areas in deserts, with few people, might be colored white to reflect more heat, or build solar cells and lasers to pump energy into space. Each of these projects is larger than any project in human history, things that require massive automation to build and manage.
