Hundreds of documents show how researchers failed to notify officials in California about a test of technology to block the sun’s rays — while they planned a much huger sequel.
Funny thing about an adrenaline rush, is sometimes it increases your co-ordination, strength, and decision-making skills. Not everyone panics and does their best to impede anyone trying to actually triage and fix the situation.
Mean-while, these people are scientists, trying to execute a, frankly, small-scale expiriment to confirm what we already know from an accidental, world-spanning expiriment that was already done over decades. They are trying to do so in a way that, at worst, will do no harm.
… but no, you’re right, nimby-ism will save us all.
Way to miss the sarcasm. I’ll take just about anything between the billionaire’s goal of killing not-quite-everyone(which we keep telling them will result in their deaths too, because they are idiots, demonstrating their idiocy by wanting this), and saving everyone.
OBVIOUSLY, I don’t expect saving everyone to be an option, but trying is better than the doomer option of saving no-one. Mind you, we’re long past the point where many endangered plants and animals could be saved without our help, just in case you wanna play the “but we deserve to die” card.
Agreeing we deserve to die doesn’t mean we are allowed to just give up and take down even more entire eco-systems with us.

Save us all? Now who is delusional.
