      Our capitalist elite would literally rather destroy the sun rather than decarbonize.

          There will always be beachfront property. It just won't be in the same place and won't be nearly as appealing without sunlight.

          I’m a big fan of your work, but they’re talks about blocking sunlight, not “destroying the sun”
