it may have to be kilometers high and hundreds of kilometers wide and we cannot possibly afford to ever build it.

More than the combined wealth of the entire planet. Any other great ideas?

Weater control systems. They were on star trek so only a matter of time.

Just how do you control weater? Last time I tried I blew a circuit breaker.

It will probably have to do with satellites and advancements in technology.
