What is geoscience?

Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

Per capita is a useless metric. It should be per planet. And I'll save you the time, it's the US and China

I strong disagree per capita is useless metric. Without it, you are just saying ‘2 people pollute twice as much as one person’.

Methane emissions threaten humanity’s ability to limit warming to relatively safe levels

Do they fuck, we could geoengineer cooling very easily. We need to know more before we do, but injecting aerosols into the stratosphere isn't technically difficult.

We're the most adaptive species that's ever existed, to our knowledge, we adapt.

The science is done, this is an engineering problem now.

You could start a submariner company to visit famous sunk ships.
