Capitalism will literally eliminate sunshine before allowing profits to fall
Once every year we'll reproduce a small part of the extinction event that took out the dinosaurs by dumping a literal ton of microscopic glitter into the atmosphere. Our planet will build a resistance to climate change.
There is absolutely no way this can backfire before we've rammed it in as a more reasonable option than simply not sacrificing our planet to the altar of increasing rates of profit.
Eliminate sunshine and create a booming artificial sunshine market*
Diversifying into sun blocking tech, UV lamps/grow operations and VR like I'm a knockoff, capitalist version of the robots from the Matrix for those sweet gains come 2035 😎😎😎😎.
