Pitch

"THE BETTER MOUSETRAP"


Description

Summary

 

As of today - Planet Earth has several strategies on the table of climate change discussion.

A few are focused on Solar Radiation Management (SRM) while others focus on Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR).

The latest Nature Geoscience article (Please see reference 1) authored by six of the top guns on the planet - believe that geo-engineering schemes aimed at reducing global warming without removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere would fail to fully mitigate precipitation changes in the tropics.

In other words, these scientists conclude the better mousetrap should be able to help cool our planet and remove atmospheric pollution in the same application!

 


Category of the action

Geoengineering


What actions do you propose?


Who will take these actions?


Where will these actions be taken?


What are other key benefits?

The clock is ticking and the political and economical rumblings of social upheaval and chaos are becoming commonplace.

According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO); Drought kills and displaces more people than cyclones, floods, and earthquakes combined . . making it the world's most destructive natural hazard.

The major objectives are to manufacture marine clouds to help provide sustainability and seriously make an effective move to reduce the 400 PPM of CO2 . . knocking on our door!


What are the proposal’s costs?

 A 6 month test to prove Cloud Whitening Theory will cost around 8 million dollars. (No profit added.)

If Cloudtec's (SRM) (CDR) capabilities are validated, the costs to help neutralize Planet Earth's climate change dilemma should not exceed $5 billion U.S. dollars per year. (No profit added.)

However, these costs may be off-set by carbon credits for the removal of atmospheric pollution!
