One of the creepier geology papers I've read was about how in the end-Permian mass extinction (which is characterized by extreme volcanic CO2 outgassing and warming) the actual kill mechanism might have been when pulses of sulfur aerosols masking the warming rained out and the temperature spiked
A lot of people are going to lose money on this. Solar radiation modification only makes sense if followed by large-scale carbon dioxide removal, and we ain't got that.
A 25-person startup is developing technology to block the sun and turn down the planet’s thermostat.
The stakes are huge — and the company and its critics say regulations need to catch up.

Hard to go down with dignity when your society is defeated by something called “Nano Banana Pro.”
Nano Banana Pro also seems to be good at moving the camera when recreating images, which can add a false sense of authenticity to sets of images, for example:

a silver lining of the AI and data centers boom might be that the grid gets the same flexibility that oil pipelines enjoy in the world, so when the ai bubble bursts we are left with something useful for electrification and decarbonization
On earnings calls, Amazon & Microsoft said the real AI bottleneck isn't chip,
it's electricity.
Bloomberg writes about two Santa Clara data centers siting empty, facing a 1-3 year lead time for power. Some cases take up to 7.
It’s a bad time to have a government hostile to solar and wind energy.
