Inventos para salvar la Tierra

The video explores geoengineering solutions to combat global warming, such as placing reflective lenses in space to reduce sunlight, thickening clouds with seawater to enhance natural cooling, and mimicking volcanic eruptions to lower temperatures. However, these methods come with high costs and risks, including environmental and health concerns. Geoengineering aims to develop technologies to mitigate global warming's catastrophic effects.

What is the primary goal of placing reflective lenses in space?

• To enhance the growth of plants

• To reduce the amount of sunlight reaching Earth

• To generate solar energy

• To increase the Earth's temperature

What is a major drawback of the reflective lenses solution?

• It causes environmental pollution

• It is ineffective in reducing global warming

• It is extremely expensive

• It requires a lot of manpower

How does increasing cloud thickness help in cooling the planet?

• By trapping heat in the atmosphere

• By absorbing more sunlight

• By reflecting more sunlight away

• By increasing rainfall

What natural event inspired the idea of using sulfur to block sunlight?

• The eruption of Mount Pinatubo

• Hurricane Katrina

• The 2010 Haiti earthquake

• The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake

What are some risks associated with releasing sulfur into the atmosphere?

• Decreased agricultural productivity

• Respiratory diseases and environmental damage

• Increased volcanic activity

• Increased global warming
