Using microwaves to transmit power from space back to earth sounds like a great idea, but so did Tesla’s concept of using the upper atmosphere to transmit energy.

He had the foresight to point out that ”The risks were potentially high - So strangely do such powerful discharges behave," he wrote in 1899, "that I have often experienced a fear that the atmosphere might be ignited."

Now that would be true global warming!
