Climate was only cool while you could buy fake carbon credits to make up lies about responsible computing at scale. Now we save the world with AI once again. Next year, compute on mars, true planetary scale! Cloud? We're doing Starsystem now!

Climate was only cool in the 1700's....

You forgot quantum! We're developing super duper plants that suck the carbon out of the atmosphere harder than a crack whore and make everything great for everyone (with money)!!!
