When you here the term "save the planet" it really means save ourselves. In truth the planet can take more then what we can do to it,,but we can't. The planet can and will bounce back but we cant.

Remember theirs no free lunch, even if we all drove electric cars, that energy has to come from somewhere, the planet is over populated and the pollution alone will eventually drive us to extinction sooner then later, once the co2 becomes too abundant it's curtains for us.

Our current way of life is non sustainable.
No one wants to hear this but we're over populated by about 30-45% .
Projection shows sea food will be almost non existence by 2033, that almost 15ish years from now.

Ill give you 5.5/10 stars.

Your completely missing the point, we have the land, that's not the problem.
We use the ocean, the power it take to utilize the ocean would be costly that's why it hasn't been done but thought of.

Look at it like this, you need to consistently make fire =(energy ) but to make that fire you need wood, that's means you need trees, you keep cutting the trees to make fire, so many people need fire their not enough wood to go around, at this point you might think, grow more trees, but the trees don't grow at the same rate that they are being used for wood.....so it unsustainable, if can't understand that I don't what to tell you, just know this "there no free lunch" at some point the damn will be broken

What's your opinion on Thorium?

How?
I'll make it simple.
Let's say you and you wife both work, your jobs represent the earth, your earth makes a combine 100 a year, more then enough for the both of you, a year later you add a child but same income, then you buy a bigger house but same income, then you have 2 more kids same income, then you had to buy a bigger car but same income, that 100 doesn't get you where it use to, not as much food in the fridge, more expensive (kids food and clothes and bills) to go along with a bigger car a new house....your stretched to your max but the kids only get bigger and demand more food and clothes, property tax goes up, next thing you know your living beyond your means which you need scale back (cut cost).
So you turn off cable, cheaper cell phones, but you still have mortgage and car note, maybe refinance if your credit is good enough.
But even if you scale back you can't cut the phones off, you can't sell the house because you need it for the amount of kids you have, you can't sell your car because it's the size you need for your kids.

Your a car breakdown issue or a health issue from having to take out a loan.

Your living a unstainable lifestyle, even if you do a major scale back your still unsustainable.
Making you can work and extra job righy, but with the earth, their is no extra earth to get resources from, you only get one....our way of life is unsustainable period.

So enforce the old China rule of 2 kids per household. Got it.

You say that about China but their pollution, air quality is extremely poor to the point where you can purchase oxygen in a can.

We studied this in college, it might be hard to hear but it's true. It not so much about population, it's more about natural resources and pollution, if we had a huge population an lived naturally there wouldn't be a problem. It's the energy consumed and resources being drained

We just need to re open the hole in the ozone layer.
calculate a balancing of how much or how often to do it and we'll be straight

Meanwhile, some scientists say the environmental triumph of a recovering ozone layer could have a troubling side effect: boosting global warming, at least in the Antarctic region.

Ozone itself is a greenhouse gas. A thinner ozone layer not only reduced heat trapped over the region, it helped stir circumpolar winds, which in turn created sea spray that formed reflective, cooling clouds.

"It's very difficult to quantify the impact on a global scale, but I think the evidence suggests filling the hole will have a regional effect on the Antarctic, possibly leading to more warming for the bulk of the Antarctic," Shanklin said. "That could drastically change predictions about global sea level change."

Whatever Happened to the Ozone Hole?

I trust in the ingenuity of humanity to figure it out and the solution will not be to kill people or to stop having children.
