Yes, there's exactly 0% chance that this ends badly. I don't know why the lady swallowed the dog to chase the cat to catch the bird to eat the spider...

I'm not saying it's a good idea, just that it's a proposed solution. We'll need to do something rather drastic if we want to have any chance of saving the world as it is today

For this to be effective you'll need:

- Global agreement and partnership, since you need to decrease temperature globally to make a dent

- Convince everyone that injecting aersols into the atmosphere is the only alternative to catastrophic warming (view in contrast to convincing people of the efficacy of vaccines etc.)

Both of these are incredibly challenging undertakings, even without trying to address the issue of continually acidifying oceans.

And yet, sadly I feel like this is the only most realistic option out of them all.

Goodbye blue sky!
