About 3/4 of the way through "Ministry for the Future" by Kim Stanley Robinson.

It highlights that the only way forward for humanity is socialism.

But that the arseholes with the money will fight back.

Yep. Without CarbonCoin and YouLock the climate could never have been saved. I love Robinson’s work generally, but this one ain’t it.

Gov't labs can't say "climate change" in papers, "climate security" is allowed.

Maybe those planes that drop sensors into the hurricane can be "cyclone bombers", forecasting is "climate AI", and cap & trade should be called "CarbonCoin". All key tools in the "War on Climate".

Recon I heard an interview where Stan had some second thoughts on the CarbonCoin

Danke @vowe.net für die Inspiration, habe ChatGPT direkt erst mal darum gebeten, die Überschriften für die PPT Slides eines Vortrags über Carbon Capturing zu machen.

I'm not a fan of crypto either unless they are thought of as Kim Stanley Robinson envisioned in his latest books, introducing the CarbonCoin idea (mainly in his "The Ministry for the Future" book), which is to me one of the best contributions by modern Sci-fi to a envision a Protopia scenario.

Pitch a crypto-currency, maybe carboncoin, that’s value is based on the soil standard - by % of organic matter in the soil. Farms become the new value proposition for our country

Hey guys please buy my new crypto, Carboncoin, it burns three drums of gas an hour to produce nothing of use or value, but it will make me personally rich if you do it so I can fund my career building robot waifu trained on Grok After Dark, appreciate you.
