Billionaire Space Flights Are a Carbon Bomb That Will Destroy the Planet

Shortsighted. The billionaires fund the development of technology that frees Earth from heavy metal resource extraction. Eventually, energy as well. It will be collected off earth.

Little bit of carbon now to keep the drive to space alive, and the rewards are endless.

We need off earth mining, and we need it now. Let the billionaires play. They can rig up some solar science fiction collection plants made from metals from asteroids,

I secretly think Elon Musk knows that for the green revolution to happen that metals need to come from celestial bodies. It's just an energy efficiency problem. The more battery storage in the world, the more efficient energy use and distribution. Can you imagine storing your wealth in energy and precious metals, in batteries?

The billionaires have to go play space dick swinging wars before we get there. Bulk metals and stored electricity will become the currency of the future.

Elon owns a tunneling company(extraction), a battery company (telsa) and a space company.

It all comes together, and it's coming together fast. It won't be the losers at the UN arguing about how to get their quotas of CO2 emissions that save the world, they may just as easily destroy it.

A supply chain from space solves everything but the generation problem (Elon has a company for that too, solar panels)

Tax carbon. Its that simple

If everybody will be a billionaire in the future, sure, carbon emissions will be out of sight, but at least we solved the inequality problem, right?
