@Rasta@mstdn.ca Given that, by weight, these planes are in the neighbourhood of 3 parts plane and fuel to 1 part water... And the amount of fuel they must burn every hour... I have to wonder if they're counter-productive... burning as much CO2 in fuel as they can reasonably prevent from burning trees...
I hate that I had this thought at all, because it begins to illustrate exactly how screwed we are.
