    We are pursuing both options, and think that if a planetary sunshade is built, the initial phases of construction will be an Earth-launched architecture while the later phases will use space resources and in-space construction

    Great, so it’s a 50 years plan then. Too bad we can’t do anything right now I guess.

      Well we could, but it would reduce short-term profits for the wealthiest few hundred sociopaths, so we can’t.
