How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

The last reply I will have here is that by messing with unrelated stuff, you ARE NOT guaranteed to solve the problem or even improve it. This Stonehenge business is totally extraneous. It has nothing to do with anything. If it were permanent, it's destruction for its own sake. What is more, it's an implicit green light for more and worse variations of this sort of vandalism or destruction going forward.
If we all make it through, YOU remember you thought it was worth it for the sake of a sound bite and 2 more days in the news for awareness instead of even trying to address the actual problem: airlines, shipping companies, cruise services, coal plants, etc etc etc.
Fucking up history for news hits is stupid, selfish, and ultimately not even particularly effective.
So with all of that, you never understood the point of doing acts like these.
Goodbye.
Nope! I think it's stupid and entitled and I'd rather distance myself from it and from you. So happy trails!
