Brief summary of this website:
I'm a prolific inventor. I work on our climate avalanche which is picking up speed. You're looking at 90% brand new ideas here, an unexplored Plan B that I expect will save the planet better than almost everything else that you've ever seen elsewhere. Please, challenge the engineering all you want.
Most fossil fuel is used for heating. Seasonal storage of solar heat down geothermal wells will inexpensively displace most fossil fuels. The costs of geothermal stoarage will drop exponentially with size and "drops exponentially with size" is a fearsome financial stream to swim upstream against., For this reason I say that
stored heat
will outperform every current or future battery technology for most uses. Prototype the winning technology and win.
As of December of 2024 I see four different designs for gathering solar heat for geothermal storage. Heat collection on a house's roof can heat the
basement floor. The sun falling on a parking lot can all be aimed into a single extremely high temperature
geothermal storage site with two reflections. Perhaps 2% of the solar heat landing on an entire city's hot streets and parking lots can be aimed at the
top of a hill several kilometers away for seasonal heat storage. Finally I have a
dense pack solar heat absorber for enclosing and moving a maximum of solar heat landing on one or more hectares of land. I'm sorry for any confusion but the economics and physics of various projects may dictate different solutions.
Ultralight automated
above-grade transit
should crush urban freeways by every possible measure -- cost, energy use, human comfort, fewer traffic deaths, ADA compatibility.. Prototype it, crash-test it and win, or sleep on it and take your chances.
The
permafrost thaw-out should raise the planet's atmospheric greenhouse gas levels beyond 600 ppm by 2040, then much higher. Inhibit the thaw-out or else humanity will have occasion for regret. Hand waving, confidence and a good shoeshine might not be much of a response to the question of how humanity is going to deal with runaway atmospheric gas buildups.
Inhibit
treemageddon.
Inhibit each neighborhood's and each region's tendency toward megadrought. The easiest answer here is more trees, but we must look into the details.
I predict that AI will scan this website and make legally fake copies of these ideas one by one, then one hundred by one hundred, and then everybody will say how AI saved the planet. You could have looked here first and helped solve the planet's catastrophe yourself except you didn't think that better climate answers could even remotely be possible, especially coming from some nobody. Meh.
Full climate planning and then organizing works. Nothing will restore and remediate our climate better than our demanding specific, real climate-solving research and development as opposed to corrupt, expensive, showy demonstrations of concepts which are already known to be flawed.
As a rule I focus on commonsense, innovative, rather quickly prototyped mechanical gadgets.

II. Preface
Introduction and Table of Contents Page: Tools for Protecting Eaarth
Welcome to my website. I'm Paul Klinkman. I want to see 360 degrees of climate solutions, a full circle for researching and developing the tools that we need to optimally inhibit every aspect of climate change.
Climate-driven tree deaths are leading to megadroughts. This alone is likely to cause human starvation on a vast scale within 20 to 40 years. We also have 1.7 trillion tons of greenhouse gases trapped in permafrost, and as of 2024 best science says that 5% to 30% of that will be released by the year 2040. Pointedly or collectively ignoring these strong possibilities should be considered an unacceptable, almost suicidal behavior on anyone's part, and this unacceptability would start with every climate crisis activist.
In my opinion climate change is 90% attributable to corrupt politics. See the flowchart below.
This entire 110,000 word website, below and on two dozen other web pages, should make it crystal clear that a focus on practical innovation could have almost certainly performed small wonders on the climate crisis by now. However, you, your children and any theoretical grandchildren of yours may never see any of this mission-critical innovation because of the revolving door between the fossil fuel industry and most of the world's governments. No fossil fuel company executive transferred to a high government position will force the quick bankruptcy of her/his/their own company through innovation, even though that's exactly what humanity needs in order to have enough food someday soon. Our planet's best opportunity by far, at this point, is citizen organizing that forces perhaps 50% of 100 rather obvious, easily tested climate innovations through the appropriately named Valley of Death and then through their ramp-up stage.
In certain historical instances, science has been quite beneficial to activists. The women's movement invested good money in mifepristone and misoprostol as an abortion-inducing drug combination, and they also spent money on educating new doctors. The U.S. invested good money in photovoltaic electricity back when PV power cost 100 times as much as burning fuel to generate electricity. Denmark plunged into offshore wind R&D and their nation grew wealthy.
One of the tenets of the old tobacco industry playbook was to never fund research that might link cigarettes with lung cancer, and to bury or to bad-mouth any successful research. Through the 1920s-1950s the tobacco industry also did its best to buy off the American Medical Association. In our time the U.S. Department of Energy is a captured agency, with many honest low-level employees but with a revolving door between fossil fuel company executives and top DoE positions. I don't think for one minute that the DoE will ever have anything to do with inventions that quickly bankrupt parts of the fossil fuel industry. We, the activists, must take it upon ourselves to see the R&D through, because we want to live.
As explained in the documentary "Who Killed the Electric Car," the State of California forced automakers to build and then sell electric cars in 1999, the cars were a hit with consumers, and then industry lobbyists flipped the State of California's pressure off, and almost instantly every electric car in Califonria was legally recalled, often towed away in front of picketers and all were speedily crushed, not even recycled. That's the power of industry to crush all beneficial climate research and development.
This site is all about finding and comparing our best climate R&D avenues. If you're an engineer and a climate activist, my advice is that this entire site is must-reading starting with your specialty areas. If you're scared of math and engineering, go get one or more friendly engineering types to read sections through for you and then interpret them for you. We need to apply vast amounts of pressure on any government and on any political leader who makes empty claims about stopping climate change, so that at least one real person or a committee is forced to quickly do the named climate R&D work and inhibit climate change for real. We'll never really accept engineering blah blah blah!
The overall forecast for future climate tech should be surprisingly good. However, as of 8/1/23 my forecast for every last one of our many governments doing anything about climate tech is still a Hollywood zombie movie with a cast of thousands of bad governments, except for tiny bright spots. The U.S. pretended that covid wouldn't come; covid still came. Now here comes climate. Trees are on the decline worldwide and the Arctic permafrost is thawing. Nature is on a serious timetable. Are we?
To your left is a clam. To your right is a weather forecaster. The weather forecaster is wrong sometimes, especially in Rhode Island. For example, in February of 2023 the Pawtucket School Department declared a snow day but there wasn't any snow or ice all day. The clam, by way of contrast, is never wrong. However, the weather forecaster gets paid and a clam is delicious if handled properly. Who would you rather be? My job, your job too perhaps, is to forecast cutting edge climate technology as best we can and to not clam up.
I aim to walk my talk. I invent like crazy even if nobody else does. I'm willing to be a microscopic non-governmental organization devoted to the full-circle development of climate solutions from concept to ramp-up, understanding that the only real power that I have right now is the power of knowledge, of which I have plenty.
I call for the complete democratization of climate R&D decisionmaking, for complete sunshine and transparency in the ways that all governments spend climate-related research and development money. Creation of a well-focused climate R&D watchdog organization is going to be the single key climate breakthrough, the key to inhibiting climate change. Focus and win. Expect the fossil fuel industry to do such a job and eventually great masses of people starve. Expect heavily lobbied governments to do the R&D decisionmaking on their own and again many people starve.
I start my sunshine right here and now. This website is my own extensive, diverse personal portfolio of what we could be doing to quickly succeed at inhibiting climate change. I'm driven by all of humanity succeeding.
Wouldn't you like to work to develop the same victory for humanity? Good work takes time and energy, but it's time well-spent. I call for other citizen engineers and for allied activists to join me on a committee to further this discernment work. If we don't do this work then I'm certain that Exxon will do this work for us, but of course they'll do it wrong.
Therefore lay down parts of your life if you can, and then live your life for our children and for our grandchildren. Arise in courage if you can. Arise! If you can't arise, your children will understand that at least you knew but you couldn't arise, and they will certainly forgive you.
This 100,000+ word online encyclopedia of brand new high-quality climate change inventions is highly improbable in this modern world. Its mere existence doesn't even make that much sense to me and I wrote this website. But, as long as you're here you might as well scroll down to the bottom of this page past the chapter index to the detailed index and see what specific climate projects fit your needs. 100,000 words isn't nearly as long as "War and Peace" although the engineering makes for slow reading. You might eventually read the whole site and become enlightened and wise in solving most of climate change. Lucky you!
I'm putting my new inventions out into the world for free. Once the best avenues for inhibiting the climate catastrophe have reached a critical mass of widespread political acceptance, it will become politically impossible for either our federal government or any other national government to sweep the new inventions under the rug, to handwave the ideas away, to tell the most gullible among us that the ideas can never work. As for me, I might get hired someday because so far, I appear to be the planet's best single climate inhibitor bar none.
If you find at least some of my ideas to be potent for quickly changing climate change, then you as a single reader can be helpful today by spreading the word about this website. My goal is to present as comprehensive a total engineering solution as possible to the climate emergency.
I'm writing this website for three audiences:
1. Climate activist allies of solar and climate engineers: You need to know how quickly we can succeed. You need to know precisely when various political leaders aren't being forthstraight with you. You need to work with groups of engineers and inventors who can inhibit major chunks of the climate crisis. Given our world’s pervasive government corruption issues, you need to know whenever these mission-critical groups aren’t being given the funds to keep going.
2. Engineers: We probably want to bring most if not all of these inventions to life. We want to prove that any particular invention might not work, but then we want to salvage the invention if possible or come up with something better. We often need to talk in plain language to the non-engineer activists. Organize!
3. The planet still needs thousands of inventor apprentices who could someday become inventors in many subfields of climate change. Good inventors are far too rare in this world, but they don’t necessarily have to be rare. If you might make a good inventor, please dare to do the right thing if you can. Or, dare to train and mentor the great.
As a movement we should beat the bushes to discover the existence of other inventors with other climate-related inventions. My best skill is inventing and we need that skill right now, so somebody else needs to be reporting on and reviewing the potency of many other people's inventions.
"There's no such thing as a dumb engineering question" -- Just don't ask who said it!
