Climate stability will be destroyed by this. The largest man-made disaster in history will result from nations competing with each other to manipulate the weather.
We couldn’t have just addressed climate change 20-40 years ago, oh no. We have to get right up to the brink and then go “how about some REALLY stupid solutions?!”
Cant we just start stapling space blankets over the poles? Protect our ice and reflect that sun right back into space. Godamn science is dumb, i saved us in 1 second
Yeah they’re called clouds. Unfortunately mankind and their carbon emissions have pushed them to the edge of extinction. That’s why they have to make fake ones with airplanes. Facts. Look it up
There is actually interesting science to discuss here. Attempting this could limit warming and be a useful tool, though the effect would likely be short-lived and should not be considered a magic bullet kind of solution. We’ll need to limit emissions regardless.

Just don’t let Professor Wernstrom run the project…

at minimum, block the sun from the tropics
so we need a moon sized satellite to sit in geostationary orbit
or maybe, ya know, stop burning so much fossil fuels, 😐

Isn’t that the premise of Snowpiercer?

It couldn’t make it any worse, right?
Narrator: It did.
