www.science.org: In a paradox, cleaner air is now adding to global warming
Satellites capture fall in pollution that helps cool the planet

It's that flippin' albedo again.

Don’t worry…

There’s a super hero on the horizon who has the answer…

The results sparked the idea of putting pollution particles back into the atmosphere, which in turn would reflect solar radiation back to space and ultimately limit or reverse human-causing climate change.

This method has been proposed by the Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment, which is funded by Microsoft founder Bill Gates.

This initial $3 million test would use a high-altitude scientific balloon to raise around four pounds of calcium carbonate dust — the size of a bag of flour — into the atmosphere 12 miles above the desert of New Mexico.

This would seed a tube-shaped area of sky half a mile long and 100 yards in diameter.

For the ensuing 24 hours, the balloon would be steered by propellers back through this artificial cloud, its onboard sensors monitoring both the dust's sun-reflecting abilities and its effects on the thin surrounding air.

SCoPEx is, however, on hold, amid fears that it could trigger a disastrous series of chain reactions, creating climate havoc in the form of serious droughts and hurricanes, and bring death to millions of people around the world.
