How Climate Change Is Making Satellites More Dangerous To Earth

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports that climate change is weakening Earth’s atmospheric friction, increasing the risk that falling satellites won’t burn up completely before reaching the surface. With thousands more satellites launched each year, this could become a major safety and environmental issue in the near future.

And here I expected arguments on the order of 'atmospheric expansion causing orbital decay to be more pronounced'.

But this?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
