Is it possible to create a barrier of some sort in the Atlantic to block in coming hurricanes?

President Trump can do it. Then he'll let someone else pay for it.

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

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.

From the moon rock samples I got to hold at Goddard Space Flight center, I'd say they smell more like Brie. Didn't taste like it though, too acidic🙂
