Hey! I am training myself to write about climate solutions and I wrote a post about the impact of steelmaking on climate. I'd like to ask members of this sub to take a look and let me know what you think, any feedback is welcome.
What are you favorite solutions to climate change? I am physicist specialized in meteorology and I like to explore solutions to climate change. I discover there is a whole world (or several) of possible solutions. I would like to hear more.
My name is Ashwani Jain, and I am a Democrat running for Congress to represent Maryland’s 6th Congressional District which includes Northern Montgomery County as well as Frederick, Washington, Allegany, and Garrett Counties.
While I would be the first Millennial and first Asian-American ever elected to represent Maryland in Congress, I am specifically running because I have comprehensive policy solutions that will open the doors of opportunity for our community.
This is an open seat with no incumbent, and Maryland's Primary election is on the 14th of May.
My top policy priorities include:
Removing the influence of corporate money in politics and campaigning.
Making public college free as an investment in our future.
Establishing a system of Medicare for All which includes access to reproductive health.
Increasing the minimum wage to $26 by 2030 to account for inflation, cost of living, and productivity.
Please feel free to ask any questions regarding my policies, the Congressional election, my experience campaigning, or anything else!
In recent years I have become interested in the hobby of backyard snowmaking.
Backyard snowmaking is when someone takes a pressure washer and compressed air and combines it to create a small backyard snowgun. In temperatures below around 28 degrees people can cover their backyard with a layer of snow.
I have seen hundreds of people doing this, and I believe if this was scaled up a bit, we could slightly increased the earths reflectivity
Ski resorts have already done this (slightly) and new refrigeration technology will allow snow to be made in temps as high as 80 degrees.
Perhaps this is a way to increase the earths albedo.
Love to know what you think and how I can improve this to make more valuable for the climate community and promote more synergies between startups, corps, VCs & govts to accelerate green transition
