Re-Ice the Arctic? And four other thinking-outside-the-box suggestions for arresting global warming or for adaptation to the effects of warming. All of these are “Plan D” options in case mitigation efforts turn out to be insufficient. There’s some innovative thinking here — I especially liked the apparent elegance of inventor Phil Kithil’s ocean-cooling “pumps” to sap heat from hurricanes to reduce their intensity. And the concept of undercutting the market for cheap rainforest wood by mass-producing genetically engineered trees.
Is this another example of an X-Prize opportunity? And thanks to Glenn for the link.
