And many other things.
podcast-host
By the way, a related topic.
podcast-host
And also creates, you know, a weird
podcast-host
geopolitical instability.
podcast-host
Yeah, and you know, like I I I'd say the you know, the other thing on um kind of these climate change issues is if you look at the the time horizon um that they're likely on we spent a lot of time talking with uh Ilan about this, who's a real expert.
podcast-host
Um
podcast-host
The the right solve is technological.
podcast-host
It's not uh it's not actually policy, um, but policy can destroy the technological answers.
podcast-host
So there there's many, many, many things that we can do on climate from you know, Elon's done a great job with battery walls and um solar, and then you know, we've seen great pro progress in both nuclear fission and nucle yeah, safe nuclear fission, safe nuclear five.
podcast-host
fusion.
podcast-host
Um and then with AI helping us design these systems and understanding, you know, like there's all kinds of things in the atmospheric like we uh it scared me a little bit.
podcast-host
I just got a uh a pitch on um the thing that can control how much heat comes in from the sun, which is, you know, there's a great uh dystopian m movie sp Snow Piercer on that.
podcast-host
That may not be a good idea, but we'll see.
podcast-host
I mean I we haven't looked at the deal yet, but
podcast-host
uh, you know, these kinds of things.
podcast-host
But there there's a lot of great um new technological ideas uh for solving these things and the the policy things that say, well, like you can't do new kinds of energy, you can't um, you know, you you just have to stop using gas stoves.
podcast-host
Are likely, not only are they very unlikely to work, um, because you know, if you just look at okay, where are the carbon emissions coming from and all these kinds of things, they're they're not likely to work because you know most of it's coming from places where we can't control their, you know, lack of use of gas stoves in China or in India.
podcast-host
Uh but they actually undermine uh people trying to build stuff.
podcast-host
And I think that's probably
podcast-host
probably the the more diabolical thing or the more dangerous thing because then we really won't have a solution.
