No one's denying that weather satellites, or climate and pollution monitoring save lives. What
Leftist Lawyer (npub1wkz…e84h) is saying is that for every life saved predicting a storm, a thousand lives are ruined by some billionaire sending up a thousand times as many satellites for his own private schemes. People would die tragically if space debris destroyed our weather satellites, and it absolutely should not happen, but people are dying tragically today, and enough of it is thanks to satellite imagery and targeting systems that even if we lost every satellite including weather, fewer lives would be lost overall.
