    i mean… we do definite track how many satellites burn up

    and really it’s a drop in the bucket. we release over 35b tonnes of CO2 alone… at ~$2000/kg to LEO, that’s… well let’s just say we aren’t getting even 1 millionth of that into orbit per year all up - the effect would have to be so huge that it’s not going to go unnoticed even from a “finger in the air” scenario

    that’s not to say it’s not good, but it’s not a compelling argument
