A new supercomputer is helping climate scientists determine whether injecting human-made, sun-blocking aerosols into the stratosphere would also alter thunderstorms and rainfall
Blocking out the sun with aerosols is a good idea if you know with high confidence how it will impact the climate system and environment. That’s why they’re trying to simulate it with the supercomputer, so they know if it fucks stuff up or not.
I don’t even believe this is a serious article, it sounds like a Simpson’s episode plot.

Anyone you seriously and unironical think about blocking out the sun needs to be removed from office and the public immediately.

You got a better idea? Earth is cooking, convincing everybody to stop burning fossil fuel is not working, and we’re out of time.
Killing not only us but the entire fauna and flora ISNT an option.
You realize the idea is to reduce how much sunlight reaches the surface, not completely block it, right?
Who proposed doing that?
