“British scientists could experiment with techniques to block sunlight as part of a £50m (€58m) government-funded scheme to combat global warming. The geo-engineering project is set to be given the go-ahead within weeks and could see scientists explore techniques including launching clouds of reflective particles into the atmosphere or using seawater sprays to make clouds brighter. Another method involves thinning natural cirrus clouds, which act as heat-trapping blankets.”

@aral They're still chasing that? Why? So much working around the issue without actually tackling the problem, always with the mitigations and never solutions.
@nini Because goodness forbid any billionaires become merely millionaires.
