Billion, with a "B".
And no. We could also discover how to travel into alternate realities instead, or perhaps wake up from The Matrix? :-P
There are also a variety to ways to live differently, like a biodome even if partial. Many solutions working together rather than one singular one "saving" the day.
And this is Uplifting News - which is what it's all about!:-)

I meant "Billion". Pardon me.
All it takes is one rank fart to ruin the Biodome idea.
But I'm glad to be living during this time frame, however.

If a biodome might be needed for like 6-12 hours in the hottest part of the day for the sake of survivability and efficiency in heating, compared to being needed 20-24 hours a day, then I could begin to see the value of OOP's words. Better yet, if some other technology could bring that timeframe down to a mere 3-6 hours (I'm imagining maybe like a yearly average, so longer some days and shorter on others), and then some other technology still further down to 1-3 hours, then collectively rather than one single approach could help to reduce rather than eliminate the need for such.
Perhaps we'll live like in the Dune movie, with everyone wearing a personal stillsuit (aka the "biodome" is personal)... such that a fart primarily affects the one doing it, which at that long starts to actually convince someone to change their diet? 😉
"Ruin" itself is a word with nuances.

The fart joke was a reference to the "Biodome" movie with Pauly Shore lol but I like your still suit idea
I know why we'd want to delay the inevitable with these efforts, and who knows what we'd be capable of in a few hundred years. It's just interesting to think about future proofing mankind, as in taking to the stars for refuge or living in domes.
Also profound to ponder if mankind is really worth saving.
Also, it's quite surreal that mankind has only been around for a few hundred thousand years, but only the last few hundred in the industrial age is apparently enough to kill a planet that's been around for billions of years and went through 5 extinction events. It just seems like the planet is more resilient than its life forms and it's all just panic.

Damnit, you just made me realize that my true goal in life was to wear a stillsuit (or maybe it was to be closer to Timothée Chalamet?😊)
