i would be beyond surprised if covering 10% of the planet's land in solar didn't require any new science or engineering. i doubt we even have the labor force or materials to pull it off, timeline notwithstanding

It’s only 10% if we want something that can lower CO2 to preindustrial levels in under a decade. It’s under 0.7% if we just want to stop the increase.
