I came here to make exactly this comment. Just how long do we expect India and Pakistan to endure these temps before attempting a geoengineering solution? Before you say 'the world would not allow that' I remind you these two countries have both nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them.
- grugagag 2y agoWhat kind of geoengineering solution do you have in mind?
- wing-_-nuts 2y agoFor a country like India or Pakistan, it'd have to be pretty affordable. I hear stratospheric sulfide injection meets that criteria but has it's own issues.
- OutOfHere 2y agoThe two countries waste much of their resources patrolling their mutual border. If they reunite instead, they could at least focus on ensuring enough solar energy to run ACs for everyone. Additional solar energy can even be used to capture carbon.
