Buckle up chooms! We got some grade-A SCOP coming our way. Seriously though, if it tastes good, is safe and nutritious to eat, and costs less, this technology will likely take over a lot of sectors. I can still see demand for conventional farming for a lot of things, but perhaps less of it.

I like that they highlighted some things that could be changed to help everyone as the climate continues to shift. More tree cover for microclimates and shade, more canals for thermal management, etc. Might also have to bring more things indoors, but they should be interconnected to encourage walkability. All the while emissions should be brought down to continue fixing the problem!

Nice, I'll check that out. Yeah I was thinking this would likely be better than air storage. Seems like it might simpler, and possibly more efficient.

It'll be interesting to see if this scales well with other storage methods. Being able to store the liquid CO2 at ambient temperatures is definitely a plus.

I figure with the continued falling prices for renewables, and storage to some degree, we're going to continue to see increasing adoption of these methods of energy generation. As per the article, if solar is already quite a deal cheaper than gas, and is only getting more-so, then adoption just keeps on making sense. Guess we'll find out just how fast this starts to go up the adoption curve.

I figure it won't be all that long before the average factory is effectively fully automated, with people only involved to install & fix the robotics, or to perform QA and administrative tasks. The input streams will likely be highly automated as well, more than they already are.
