These guys were already predicted to play a role in global climate since they reflect a lot of light and soak up CO2 to build their armor. Apparently they can die en masse to viral infection, then aerosolize and promote cloud formation. Whoa everything is connected manpic.twitter.com/tng7x9zt9J

Nature is beautiful but stability is an illusion.https://medium.com/s/story/the-surprisingly-solid-mathematical-case-of-the-tin-foil-hat-gun-prepper-15fce7d10437 …
