Can't wait to capture all the CO2 and bury it underground so it becomes oil again in millions of years and our descendants can too enjoy the wonders of petrol combustion all over again!
- teraflop 4y agoI guess you're being sarcastic, but postponing the worst effects of climate change from "now" to "millions of years from now" would be an enormous win.
- DennisP 4y agoAnd with any luck, our descendants millions of years from now will be running on fusion power, throughout our solar system and around a bunch of nearby stars.
- orthecreedence 4y agoYou're joking, but we may be the second or third iteration of intelligent species that has gone through this already on Earth. Geological timescales are so large that any evidence of these species would have come and gone in what is effectively the blink of an eye. Maybe trilobytes drove F350 Superduties.
- DennisP 4y agoWe do have solid evidence of a natural nuclear reactor a billion years ago, so probably the trilobites didn't achieve nuclear power.
