Wait….if MTG wants to ban geoengineering, could we use that to back door environmental protection?

No, the bill is specifically worded such that carbon capture would be illegal since it's intention is to change the weather, but pollution is fine since it's unintentional.

That's why they want to ban it, so we can't put up sumshades or sun screens to delay climate change effects and reflect UV. Eg a few years ago they wanted to spray sulfur in the atmosphere, because it would block the sun somewhat. I'm opposed to this or any shield like that (which is not easy to remove or clean) and think we should build a giant flat metal blanket in space to stay locked between earth and the sun to deflect whatever percentage of rays we can get it to deflect. And then start mass carbon squestering programs. But we needed to start all that a decade ago.
