Nev @nevscape on Alaska rain drones

    por Gigliola: Alaska

    Queensland is still dealing with cane toads from a past attempt to fix nature, which makes the idea of one company controlling rain in Alaska feel like a dangerous leap. A tech called Rainmaker uses drones to freeze clouds on the edge of precipitation, turning them into snow that melts into water as it falls. Nev (nevscape) thinks this is incredibly cool, but he's also worried about what happens when power concentrates in a single entity instead of staying individual. #Alaska

    A different category of good tech is, I don't know if you've seen the one, I need to research this more, they found an ability to make rain. There's a company that in Alaska just created rain out of nothing. So I'm interested in like all types of tech that can, I think it's a funny one I can tell you after, but they basically put these, I think it's drones or something in the sky. And the way that it works is these clouds were going to drop rain and then they didn't. They're like on the edge. So what they do is they freeze it, they make it colder and that turns it into snow. and the snow does fall and then the snow melts into water as it's going down into the earth. So then you get more water. Pretty fucking cool. Like I think it's called Rainmaker. I need to research this one more, but that is, that also I question messing with ecosystems. In Australia, we had like a rabbit problem. So we introduced, I think it's something called myxomatosis or the rabbits are now blinds and that spreads like a whole bunch of problems. We introduced cane toads because we thought it would kill, what was it like? some other creature and now all the queensland all our sugar fields are filled with cane toads like when you fuck with nature the ecosystem like things happen i'm hoping that's not the case with like creating our own rain but is this the world that we're going into where we have already messed it up so much we've already messed up the world so much that we have to like now control all these things and then that's where looping it back to the start power concentration this is significant levels of power if you have technology and you're the one who controls who gets rain or not What does that mean? That's why you need the centralization of power. It's so much more than money. It's everything. You need to have individual power.
