Hey, they're already in the dark, and think the rest of us should join them.

a relatively low cost global cooling measure would be to mix more mica into asphalt road surfaces
in theory, the cooler surface would also deteriorate somewhat more slowly
There was an effort underway on this during the W administration but it was pretty small scale and I don't think they were able to fund the monitoring needed to establish the actual impacts.

I should have noted that the mica mix would produce a surface with a reflectivity of about 15% as opposed to new asphalt surface having a reflectivity of about 3%

Isn't there something called the Clean Air Act that prohibits this stuff?
Or is that irrelevant (pending Supreme Court review) if it interferes with something Joe wants to do?

I actually did some research on this years ago.
While you want sunlight on cultivated areas, it is actually possible to increase the reflectivity of the planet by treating some areas which don't need the sun, e.g., parking lots, rooftops of buildings, canals. Oceans are an interesting area where some decrease in sunlight a few hours a day wouldn't be a problem.

...Lemme see if I got this straight:
1) "We need to go solar powered EVERYTHING!"
2) "We're going to cut the amount of sunlight reaching the solar powered everything."
These people are mad, and they're going to take us with them.

I don't think anyone anticipated a world where the rich and powerful try to make the planet uninhabitable for everyone else.

I think this is a California super train initiative. The point isn’t to actually complete the project, but rather to get money flowing to favored people with skimming plus kickbacks. In the end nothing useful will be achieved and useless facilities will remain - sort of like hosting the Olympics.

JUST SAYING
Seem to remember Signs of the Apocalypse lists this as one of the end of times.
"Fourth seal: Angel blows the trumpet and 1/3 of the sun, and the moon will turn dark"
[Breitbart] Although President Joe Biden has personally denied involvement in his family’s international business scheme nine times, a time line of events suggests Joe Biden not only is linked to the family’s affairs but is a key member of an "organized crime" operation, as House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) termed it.
Comer recently identified "six specific policy decisions" that Joe Biden made that indicate he could be "compromised."
"Where is the money?" Biden responded in June when asked about his ties to the business. He later said he was joking. "It’s a bunch of malarkey."
The following 19-point time line lays out the data points obtained from whistleblowers, the "Laptop from Hell," James Comer, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), and the Senate 2020 report on the family.
One:
In 2013, Hunter flew to China with Vice President Joe Biden aboard Air Force Two. During the excursion, Hunter introduced the vice president to his business partner Jonathan Li, the CEO of a company linked to Chinese intelligence.
Ten days after the visit to China, Hunter secured a ten percent interest in BHR Partners, a Chinese state-backed investment fund co-founded with Li. The fund’s capitalization was $1 billion.
The Bank of China, a state-owned bank, controls BHR Partners. BHR Partners’ website boasts 15 billion RMB (renmibi, the official Chinese currency) in various portfolio companies, translating to more than two billion U.S. dollars.
Hunter Biden held a ten percent interest in BHR with the entity Skaneateles LLC. He controlled Skaneateles, according to Chinese public records from Baidu, as the sole governor until its dissolution in September 2021, a Washington, DC, registration indicated. Documents obtained by Breitbart News, first revealed by the nonprofit Marco Polo, show the control of Skaneateles LLC is held by Kevin Morris, Hunter Biden’s top attorney, who also paid Hunter Biden’s IRS debts.
Two:
Photos from 2014 reveal Joe Biden met with Hunter’s Mexican business associates, billionaire Miguel Alemán Velasco and his son Miguel Aleman Magnani, in the vice president’s office.
"The then-vice president also flew Hunter and his partner Jeff Cooper on Air Force 2 to Mexico City in 2016 where Hunter arranged to meet Alemán’s son for meetings over a ’flippin gigantic’ business deal," the Daily Mail reported.

The case for impeachment is clear. As we go through the process, there will be Republicans that purposefully get out in the weeds talking about a father’s love. Those Republicans are dirty, working for the other side and need to be removed. Reality is Joe used Hunter as a bag man. That Hunter is still alive is God’s work not Joe’s. The response to any statement about a Father’s Love should be met with this statement.
“A father’s love? We’re not talking about Ashley. That’s a different conversation.”

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
