After 30 years of deadlock, a new U.N. climate agreement aims to pay developing countries for loss and damage caused by global warming. But huge questions remain about how it would work.

my notes when reading the article:
if we can reduce the amount of water in the world, can we avoid the sea-level rises that seem baked into the future?
electrolosys can split the water into hydrogen & oxygen. just don’t let them get bqack together again, or if we must combust, is there a way to combust and not result in water again?
of course it would be prohibitivly expensive.
sequester the hydrogen (but where ? it’s smallest element, very hard to keep stored? like can it go into certain mine-like structures like c02 can?
regardless, in principle, could it work? only need the costs and if possible, or might be possible in chwich case how much work to make possible?
TO-DO: rough calcs for the enrgy required to remove 1mm or whevs ocean level rise.
TO-DO: can hydrogen be contained?
