    Sure… we can totally invent a hundred different solutions soon™ that mean we can just keep burning fossil fuels like we really, really want to.

    Okay… they will actually never work and we will irreversibly damage our planet. But that’s okay, because the people telling you those fairy tales will have made a lot of money by then. And that’s also worth something, isn’t it?

      I have to wonder how this would impact fossil fuel competitors like solar and wind, given that both are driven by the sun. I’m sure these rich bastards would love to kill two birds with one stone.

      It’s fine though, we already have the solution. Basically. I mean, I’ve marked it in my calendar, so we’re basically halfway there already. Now get off my back about all the CO2 pollution we get rich off.
