Your posting illustrates that fact that a classical and rigorous liberal arts education has not been obtainable in America for some years. You don't even know what it is and what such a preparation can do for employment.
Another problem is that education is conflated with training. US students look to college for training, when they should be looking for an education.
Having said that, current "liberal arts" graduates are unemployable, except in the joke sense of being capable of inquiring whether fries are desired.
Blanket the Middle East with free, open and ubiquitous internet, by every practical means, together with Tor. These people have been living in the dark too long.
Then put a fence around the place and let them settle their own differences.
Here is my solution: Shorten copyright to three years and decriminalize torrenting. According to the studios this will cause immediate collapse in programming.
we can't even clean all of the garbage out of the ocean that is accumulating there. You going to engineer the Amazon back into health? Replace the ice that is no longer recovering? Put back the methane that is escaping as ice recedes and ocean water warms? De-acidify the ocean? While continuing to burn coal and petroleum and pour pesticides into the earth and ocean thus acidifying the ocean and destroying the fertility of the earth?
In the inaction scenario the technology and costs are fairly certain and predictable. But there is a possibility that they may be avoidable if warming turns out to be less than predicted.
In the action scenario there is a risk that all the abatement expenditure was fruitless, either because it didn't work, was too late to be of use, or because it just wasn't needed in the first place. Even so, the commitment will have been made and adaptation and cost avoidance impossible - money down the drain.
So without a huge economic benefit to either option, it comes down to risk and flexibility.
Also remember that there are more than these two options, having their attendant risks. Geoengineering, for example.
Some believe in burning bushes, some believe in the Jewish zombie, some believe in a rock in the desert, some believe in magic underpants, some believe in cows and elephants, some believe in aliens in volcanoes, some believe they were previously an ant, some believe in pasta.
I pay for my sweaters and gyros. Please explain how you paid for them?
Just because you have decided that you somehow pay for me, does not mean that I am now obliged to pay for your internet. You mind your business and I'll mind mine. I shall not refer to you as a douche or bumpkin. I shall refer to you as a whiner and grifter if you seek charity so impolitely.
More importantly, will the cost drop? There is so much meddling in the market nowadays that you may pay less for things that are costing more to make, and vice versa.

To channel Linus, only wimps keep receipts, pay with bitcoin and let the blockchain mirror them.
...you get up with fleas.
Vaping is better than smoking? What kind of government is this?

Indeed. They should be the first to settle any newly-found planets.

"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
Unfortunately, the explanation is not adequate.
Oops, Homeland Security, not NSA.
Oops again, they are the same thing.
From CERT website, with prominent NSA logo (https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/903500):
"Tangible Security would also like to publically thank Seagate for their cooperation and desire to make their products and customers more secure."

This kind of humblebragging is more annoying than a SJW whine. Why are you posting here?

Is it evil to kowtow to evil?
I never made any claims, only that it is an example of other options, which should also be considered.
Trash in the ocean is caused by global warming?

Someone is on the case!
I am willing to contribute money for the development of (hopefully) simple software or scripts rid my system of this malware, once installed.
Also, some ongoing review system which only allows MS updates that are deemed benign.
Sheesh, it's getting tedious to wade through all the KB verbiage with my evil lawyer hat on.

Why do these things need to be done?

Which will provide a big opening for Musk and any other such project seeking funding.
What you say is so obvious to any rational person, that to be lectured on the subject is annoying.
And what is the sense in buying $500 of components to save $100 in electricity? My numbers may be wrong, but simplistic imperatives are stupid.
Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.
