From Alistair Litt, Whangarei, New Zealand
Hue White suggests one reason why a simulated world might be being run, if indeed we are living in such a reality, is that we are an experiment in building skills and forecasting future phenomena (Letters, 14 March). Here I offer another: could we be a means of seeing what will become of the environment if humans release as much carbon as possible into the environment over a very short period of time?
Just a thought. Incidentally, we would possibly be getting close to the end of such a simulation, if that were its actual purpose.
