Yeah sure who needs tides?

In fact, theres a chance that the climate catastrophe from destroying the moon would offset the effects of anthropogenic climate change. Not a very good chance, like 0.00000001%, but still better than everything else we’re doing.

Wouldn’t the lack of tides result in the ocean getting pretty stagnant, deoxygenating, and most ocean life dying except for microbes and plankton, which would then affect the atmosphere and pretty much kill our current biome?

  Well when you put it like THAT, I guess yeeting the moon DOES sound like perhaps not the best idea ever…

  I don’t think so… why would that happen?

A moonless earth would still have tides, they’d just be much smaller.
