The premise is based on the idea of solar geoengineering via stratospheric aerosol injection. Basically, it involves seeding the upper atmosphere with lots of tiny particles that can reflect some of the sun’s incoming rays back into space before they reach the surface, creating a cooling effect. It’s been theorized that dispersing around 5 million tons of pulverized diamond dust per year could lower global temperatures by nearly 2.9°F.
So anything but reducing carbon emissions which are the root cause.
Yes
I like beef. I’m generally content with beans and chicken to cover the same need, but I really like beef.
I think if we make some kind of artificial beef sufficiently cheaper, we’ll dramatically reduce at least some of those emissions.
Also reduction of carbon emissions is tied to current carbohydrates producers’ power, which is being used to preserve itself. Politicians are incentivized with indirect bribes to impede the transition.

or fiber glass. There was just a thing with a guy who got his fiber glass air ducts cleaned and they were not supposed to use a brush but they used a brush.
Isn’t this how multiple apocalypse movies and at least one apocalypse game begins?
This idea must have been pitched by DeBeers
You just had to go and bling the chem-trails, didn’t you? :)
Per year
lmao
This sounds like a bad idea.
According to the linked article this diamond dust is to be injected into the stratosphere. Wouldn’t this interfere with aviation? Airplanes also travel inside the stratosphere. Also, wouldn’t placing diamond dust in the atmoshphere interfere with the launching of satellites/ rockets? One could argue that there is also sand dust present, but diamond dust consists of way harder particles than sand. As pointed out in the comments: would’t the diamond dust also have an impact on surfaces when it comes down (the example mentioned was scratching of car’s windshields) to the ground? Is it safe to breathe?
