Blotting out the sun already has been proven to work. Maritime trade in 2020 implemented heavy regulations on Sulphur Dioxide emissions that essentially overnight reduced said emissions by 80%.
Accidentally, it turns out Sulphur Dioxide was carrying out reverse greenhouse effect and global temperatures are rising much faster than before as a consequence.
This research should NOT be in the hands of private capital, but burying our heads in the sand regarding climate science and geoengineering is a horrible idea.
