Wait, you’re telling me that cooling the planet won’t bring back destroyed homes? I don’t believe you.

Oh boy. I don’t think you understand how bad it’s gonna be. It’s entire ecosystems that are being destroyed. You can’t just rebuild them. Some ecosystems like rainforests or coral reefs are a lot more sensitive to temperature fluctuations.

Remember that the 14 tallest peaks in the world are over 8 km from sea level. So 4,300m is definitely not near the summit.

The article really sucks on details, but some quick googling tells me that the two base camps are above 5,100m, so this must be below even that.

Edit: the “remember” part is not condescending, just something I try to remember to give perspective on heights. And I thought it was the 8 highest peaks before fact-checking myself 😅.

It’s cellular that you’re not allowed on airplane and that’s the FCC, not FAA. And it’s so cell towers don’t get DDoS’d, not so airplanes don’t fall out of the sky.
