[DK GreenRoots] Re: Sill negotiating
- If they misbehave (which I'm sure they'll do), they would be subject to breakup into smaller companies to insure efficient markets.
Existing antitrust law makes companies subject to breakup. But being this requires enforcement, and we've done a poor job of that in the past several decades.On Sat, Nov 13, 2021 at 5:59 PM <kirathomsencheek@gmail.com> wrote:DITTO!

I'm sure there are important rules and caveats I've not thought of, but there it is. Sounds a little bit like surrender, but we'd have a shot at saving the planet, perhaps?BillOn Sat, Nov 13, 2021 at 10:50 AM Deborah Phelan <deborahphelan@gmail.com> wrote:

Re: [DK GreenRoots] Lovelock on Biodiversity and Climate
Biodiversity for a Livable Climate (https://bio4climate.org) had been working on this for about a decade, publishing information, and producing conferences on various aspects of how biodiversity affects climate and vice versa (https://bio4climate.org/conferences/). I am now convinced that we can repair much of the damage we've caused through the amplification of existing ecosystems, geotherapy, rather than geoengineering. The best resources I know of are available at http://solarray.blogspot.com/2021/04/geotherapy-not-geoengineering-please.html
