Kurzgesagt did a video on the topic. We just build a planet-sized sunshade to freeze the atmosphere, launch the excess CO2 into space, and import water from the ice moons of the gas giants. Simple, really.
Cost, 100 to 1000 trillion. We can barely fund NASA
Every argument I ever hear against thinking about things in the cool space future boils down to "we couldn't do it this financial quarter so it'll never be possible at all".
I like to think about the spacefaring AI (or cyborgs, if we're lucky) that will inevitably do this stuff in our stead, assuming we don't strangle them in the cradle.
