About this listen
But what happens when forecasting isn't enough? When you have to do more than just predict the heat… you have to actively fight it? Imagine a world where the sky is a machine, where technicians on the ground can inject a fine haze into the stratosphere—a planetary sunscreen to keep a city from breaking. The problem is, every action has a reaction. Cooling one continent might steal rain from another. So who makes that trade? Who bears the weight of a choice that saves one life, but costs another?
This story is a thought experiment that puts you inside that impossible calculation, where mercy is measured in degrees and decimals.
This is Calculated Mercy.
