Wow, that's wild! While the idea of painting everything white sounds pretty cool, it's probably more of a fun thought experiment than a real solution. Climate change is super complex and needs a mix of approaches, like reducing emissions and switching to renewable energy. But hey, gotta give it to scientists for thinking outside the box!
