gollark: Geoengineering would be good if it's workable, although nuclear is just pretty good generally even if it will not fix everything instantly.
gollark: A significant amount of energy use is electricity. If we make that cleanly, that is a significant step toward reducing climate change, and you can then throw cheap electricity at other problems.
gollark: "This wouldn't fix literally all problems at once so why even do it?"
gollark: Since a lot of them are.
gollark: No, it's useful before then.
