I’m surprised no one has made an ebook in the hardcover format I tried to patent 30 yrs ago (pic) a decade before the Kindle. A real reader/writer knows less page turns equals more immersion.

I get that the containment structure is simpler with no risk of ‘meltdown’ but I don’t see how their concept are for a commercial power plant is realistic. You’d still need a robust containment structure to deal with a leak.

I have mixed feelings about these new findings (link). AMOC collapse would have been a disaster for Europe, but also for Russian gas fields, slowed Greenland melt but accelerated Thwaites, and bought us all a little more time to stop global heating? phys.org/news/2025-01...

This is Wade & Cheng 2024? It does seem to raise new questions in the ongoing debate how much CO2 increase at the same time as Chicxulub asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs?

See also ‘the boy who cried wolf.’ Climate deniers hold up weak examples of past crises, some false alarms, some averted, as an excuse for inaction. They do not know the ending of the fable. The sheep are eaten by the wolf because of complacency.
