No, I Understand it's a fantasy. The problem is it's both inconsistent and counterproductive; preserving industry while kneecapping the sciences that generate mitigation tools won't cut emissions, it just blinds us to them.

Someone's fantasy is wrong on the Internet! You're a meme dude.

Also, running certain industries at a minimum level of progress and output whilst completely killing off others would definitely cut emissions.

Anyways your ears are firmly blocked and you're basically saying drastic cuts to Co2 won't cut emissions unless we're monitoring them from orbit.

It's totally stupid "I need a number" to know sciencism. Truly the kind of person who thinks trees don't make a sound when they fall unless there's someone listening with a Db monitor.

Meanwhile your recommendation requires an incredibly high amount of a technological base to what - launch 300 tonnes of Co2 emissions into the air per launch, when weather balloons, ground radar and weather station will suffice.

You're being ridiculous.
