Resolves to 'YES' if Claudia Sheinbaum publicly advocates for Geoengineering before the end of her term on December 1, 2030

'publicly advocate' means she will mention Geoengineering in a positive way, either in a speech or policy proposal, or in any other way that is intended to be heard by the general public

  • Update 2024-18-12 (PST): Solar Geoengineering specifically refers to suspending particles in the upper atmosphere to prevent sunlight from reaching the earth, similar to a simulated volcano aftermath. Other forms of land modification like terracing, earthworks, or river redirection do not qualify. (AI summary of creator comment)

Market asks a question that will take a judgement call to resolve, but the creator hasn't declared they won't bet in it. And oh, look, the first bet is by the creator. But does he have a 5-star rating at least? No?

Hard pass. Interesting question, though!

@DanHomerick what is that supposed to mean

@Yoae it means I thought it was an interesting market, but I chose not to bet for the stated reasons.

@DanHomerick because I bet on my own market?

@Yoae yeah. "Publicly advocate" is a quite broad phrase that requires interpretation. As the person doing that interpretation, betting in your own market is a red flag. When combined with less-than-perfect reviews of your previous market resolutions, it becomes a hard pass.

I think I was pretty clear about my reasoning in the first post. I don't know why you're prompting me to restate my objections.

@DanHomerick thank you for explaining that

bought Ṁ20 YES

What's the definition of (solar) geoengineering? e.g. does terracing or other earthworks on agricultural land count? Redirecting a river? Is there a requirement for it to be large scale projects?

@VitorBosshard solar Geoengineering involves suspending particles in the upper atmosphere to prevent sunlight from reaching the earth. Think of it like a simulated volcano aftermath.
