You’re right, but let’s not forget we’ve already “geoengineered” numerous times. Various dam projects, islands creation, connecting waterways that didn’t previously connect… And we made plenty of mistakes then. I have even less faith in this. We will probably hyper focus on what humans need vs what the planet needs and target some metric that only after we achieve it, realize it’s terribly wrong.
We have no choice.
But to experiment with a system we still don’t understand all that well?
Oh yea, that’s a great idea.
We’re already experimenting and making a mess of it.

It seems my feed agrees with you, with this poetic juxtaposition.
(And I agree with you, too.)
This is a ridiculous assumption. We have a preponderance of choice.
The system is too slow to adapt. It simply can’t be changed fast enough.
