But that-
ONCE AND FOR ALL!
This sounds like one of those ideas on the level of “If we punch another hole in the ozone layer, the greenhouse gasses can escape!”
-That won’t work.
-But why? Mom? Moooom! Why won’t it work? Moom!
Saw a study recently that placed refrigeration management as one of the most impactful things regarding climate change… pretty sure that doing it on a big scale is a horrible idea
No, it’s not possible unless the heat is being transferred outside of Earth and that requires a ton of energy. Also Kyle Hill did a video where he did the math and the cube required would be over 30 km^3
Oh, so I could just make a bunch of ice cubes in my fridge and throw them in the ocean! It would only take me the rest of life to make one of these at home!
Has some real “why doesn’t Tesla put an alternator on the wheels” energy
Just one small problem, Ben. Where’s the heat from the condenser going to go?! FUCKING AQUAMAN?!?
We are going to bottle the heat and return it to the sun!
It’s being cooled down by the ice.
ONCE AND FOR ALL!
Globa waba?
How many iceblocks to save the eart?
Just like Daddy puts in his drink every night.
And then he gets mad.

I wonder if they realize that, according to the laws of physics and thermodynamics, the amount of heat and energy they consume and put into the world in order to produce those ice blocks, actually exceeds the amount they’re removing. So making ice blocks might help in the short term, but in the long term, they might actually make it worse, if not for the arctic, than for other places on the planet. Unless they’re doing other stuff like planting trees, the best they could ever hope for is to simply break even; to cancel themselves out.
The ice isn’t to cool the water, the ice is to reflect most of the incoming light.
Sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and helps moderate global climate. Sea ice has a much brighter surface compared to many other Earth surfaces, particularly the surrounding ocean. The darker ocean reflects only 6 percent of the sun’s energy and absorbs the rest, while sea ice reflects 50 to 70 percent of the incoming energy.

Solving climate change with a digital tech demo hosted on a GoFundMe page is a worse idea than even comedy writers could come up with
I’m guessing the goal is to convince a few people on the edge that we’ve already solved it, so they care less. Slowing down the movements progress ever so slightly.
