What can we do about the climate crisis? Well, we could treat the symptoms by trying to offset the greenhouse gas effects of warming. Maybe we could dump a surrey of iron into the ocean to spur the growth of carbon-sequestering algae. Maybe we could "dope the stratosphere" with sulfate aerosols in order insulate the globe from the sun's radiation. (The recent volcano in Iceland actually did this for us.) Or...SPACE MIRRORS!
These schemes seem a little dubious. And very presumptive.
Yay, NPR!!!
Space Mirrors! Intriguing.
