Daryl76679Beaming Solar Energy From Space Gets a Step Closer
fr0gIsn't that just a further recipe for disaster? Isn't that just additional energy that will turn into heat sooner or later and heat up the planet?
If I'm not mistaken regulat solar is one of the few energy sources that doesn't have that problem and there's plenty sun to go around, so how is this helping anyone? (I guess it might have some applications in space?)

SJ_ZeroYou’re being ridiculous, a lemmy luddite. What could possibly go wrong with a multi-megawatt death ray aimed at the earth from space?

Get your facts straight! I'm not a lemmy ludite, I'm a kbin krazy!
That being said, the whole heat thing does seem to be a thing, even if it's much less significant than the CO² heating effect and not a super big deal yet.

Nuclear #fusion will not only come too late to help solve the #climatecrisis. Even in the long run it will not be the unlimited energy source that some are dreaming of. The reason is basic physics, and anyone can do the back-of-envelope calculation. 🧵1/
Could be a useful local effect. “Come live in Death Ray City, Nunavut! Beautiful weather year round! Very few death ray related deaths every year!”
