Vac thrust of 700 tons means avg of 14 tons/floor of structural steel for a 50 story building.

@williamricci6 50% higher. ~1.3 M lbs sea level and ~1.5 M lbs vacuum thrust. Will be 60% higher with some tweaks.

@elonmusk Most troubling are positive feedback loops, like
⤹—————————————————————←
⤷ permafrost melts → releases CH4 → warming ⤴
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 26, 2013
V much agree. Moreover, there is risk of severe non-linearities in feedback loops causing sudden warming.

Yeah, climate change should really be considered a centrist issue, as it affects everyone.

Am not suggesting shutting down CO2 production, but rather to price in environmental cost & shift to sustainable energy

Right question to ask Dyson or others: what is probability that human actions could cause catastrophic climate change?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 25, 2013
Even if the answer is only on the order of 1%, we should still take immediate action, as there is only one atmosphere.

What most serious scientists have a problem with is the notion of certainty about *any* subject. That is not the point.
