Two great tastes that taste great together

A former Canadian defense minister is calling for governments around the world to release the alien technology that they’ve gathered, and use that knowledge to fight global warming. Well, hey, why not?

This story makes several implicit comments: 1) on the seriousness of the Canadian military efforts of the last few decades, 2) solving magical problems with magical solutions is appropriate, and 3) people assume that alien technology will be better just because it’s alien.
