See, I have never seen Climate Change as the big threat. Thugs with nukes, now
that is a species killer.
Telmo, I offered to polemicist JC, the offer for Putin to place nukes back into
Cuba (1962) as a withdrawal from the Ukraine. Putin gains instant assurance of
US destruction, and he and his thugs get a Face Saving thing.
Will this work? I don't know? Would any US general or admiral think this might
be a good idea? Have never asked one.
Conceivably there could be money to be had in all this of course. It's an idea.
As economist Walter Williams said, "Life often isn't about fixes, it's often
about trade offs."
China bribes everyone in the world and often gets its way, in this fashion. No
need to give up on the human aspect.
Technology IS harder to overcome than human nature. Otherwise, you'd be
grilling sausages by your Mr. Fusion Grill.

p.yiv2492669671MsoNoSpacing{margin:0;}Vulcanoes and asteroids are super-easy
stuff when compared with the species-wide evolutionary step that would be
required for us to be safe from global nuclear conflict. We seem to be going in
the opposite direction on that one, as far as I can tell. I am a bit
pessimistic on this. I suspect it will require the trauma of a near-extinction
event. Crossing my fingers that it doesn't happen in our lifetimes.

Which I surmise that with the 32 second degree of change, this method is real
life does likely prevent, given enough time/warning will prevent another
Tunguska, another Cretaceous-Paleogene Extinction Event, which seems to be the
big success of our age.
Next to work on, preventing super volcanoes, and yeah, maybe a nuclear attack?

NASA Spacecraft Accomplishes Mission and Smashes Asteroid Into New Orbit
The DART mission proved more successful than expected in adjusting the
trajectory of Dimorphos, suggesting that a deadly space rock could be deflected
in the future.
