How about we just figure out how to not kill this planet first?

Sounds like this idea could take us back to before we fucked it up. Then all we gotta do is blast all of the dinosaurs into space, bada bing bada boom, no more oil, no more climate change, Earth saved, easy money.

Is it weird that my first thought is to go back and hunt dinosaurs with a rocket launcher.

Geo electric power will do that. Just have a conductive kite in the magnetosphere and harness electricity orders of magnitude more than we'll ever need renewable, clean and usable for 3d printing factories, laser furnaces that can heat elements to temperatures only imagined in sci-fi before now. We won't even need batteries, just hook the kites up to existing electrical grids.
