gollark: Oh, and possible new transport thing for the ultrarich: suborbital rocket to a different continent.
gollark: That sounds very cool if quite possibly impractical.
gollark: There aren't that many alternatives.
gollark: Personally, my suggested climate-change-handling policies:- massively scale up nuclear fission power, it's just great in most ways- invest in better rail infrastructure - maglevs are extremely cool™ and fast™ and could maybe partly replace planes?- electric cars could be rented from a local "pool" for intra-city transport, which would save a lot of cost on batteries- increase grid interconnectivity so renewables might be less spotty- impose taxes on particularly badly polluting things- do research into geoengineering things which can keep the temperature from going up as much- increase standards for reparability; we lose so many resources to randomly throwing stuff away because they're designed with planned obsolecence- a very specific thing related to that bit above there - PoE/other low-voltage power grids in homes, since centralizing all the AC→DC conversion circuitry could improve efficiency, lower costs of end-user devices, and make LED lightbulbs less likely to fail (currently some of them include dirt-cheap PSUs which have all *kinds* of problems)
gollark: You can get AR-ish things which just display notifications or something.
