>Microsoft’s billionaire founder Bill Gates is financially backing the development of sun-dimming technology that would potentially reflect sunlight out of Earth’s atmosphere, triggering a global cooling effect. The Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment (SCoPEx), launched by Harvard University scientists, aims to examine this solution by spraying non-toxic calcium carbonate (CaCO3) dust into the atmosphere — a sun-reflecting aerosol that may offset the effects of global warming (https://www.reuters.com/article/climate-change-geoengineering-idUSL8N2IY3SM).).

Widespread research into the efficacy of solar geoengineering has been stalled for years due to controversy. Opponents believe such science comes with unpredictable risks, including extreme shifts in weather patterns not dissimilar to warming trends we are already witnessing. Environmentalists similarly fear that a dramatic shift in mitigation strategy will be treated as a green light to continue emitting greenhouse gases with little to no changes in current consumption and production patterns.

SCoPEx will take a small step in its early research this June near the town of Kiruna, Sweden, where the Swedish Space Corporation has agreed to help launch a balloon carrying scientific equipment 12 miles (20 km) high. The launch will not release any stratospheric aerosols. Rather, it will serve as a test to maneuver the balloon and examine communications and operational systems. If successful, this could be a step towards a second experimental stage that would release a small amount of CaCO3 dust into the atmosphere (https://room.eu.com/news/experiment-to-dim-sunlight-with-chalk-dust-under-review).).

The exact amount of CaCO3 needed to cool the planet is unknown, and SCoPEx scientists similarly cannot confirm whether it is the best stratospheric aerosol for the job.

You can do this for basically little cost. All you have to do is alter airline fuel and flight paths. So they create maximum contrails during the day and minimum contrails at night.

Contrails during the day reflect more energy from space to space. Than they reflect from the surface back to the surface. At night their absence helps surface radiation escape into space.

Already scientifically proven by the 3 days after 9/11. When the lack of airline contrails caused temperatures to dip 3 degrees.

Solar cells will stop working. But beyond that, it'll cause a mass migration with people moving even further south to avoid snowfalls. What can go wrong?

And this isn't even getting into how it'll impact airplanes colliding with these particles, which will require more frequent maintenance on airplanes (more energy consumption), and irregular displacements of the chemicals causing isolated and seemingly unpredictable sunlight "leakages" at certain areas, in effect, isolating and amplifying the effect of global warming on select regions.

I'm expected to believe 100g of this chemical is meant to be a quantity meaningful enough to get some research done? How is that enough for them to get any meaningful results?

part of the drive behind this geoengineering approach is that it's so cheap. You don't need to put that much crap in the atmosphere to have a large effect. At least that's what we think. They want to release a plume of material and see how it spreads out as it gets further from the balloon. While this seems sort of dumb, we don't understand fluids all that well at very high reynolds numbers. They also want to see how the aerosol scatters light and monitor any changes to atmospheric chemistry. I'm saying all this because I went to this dude's talk. I'm still pretty iffy about geoengineering and in fact solar geoengineering could have negative effects on crop growth.

World population growth is slowing every year for decades, and is projected to continue slowing. In fact, in most first world nations there is negative population growth, indicating a need for native populations to breed MORE as opposed to importing tens of millions of foreigners from third world shitholes. To add, the capacity for food production is not even close to being stressed on a worldwide level, humanity could easily support tens of billions of people if it were required though that will never likely be the case. Put simply, outside of an ecological disaster that makes modern food production tecgniques unusable, there will never be a situation in which humans as a whole are fighting to be able to eat. In such a situation, then, your argument is not that overpopulation is a problem, but ecology.

It is literally non-issue that has been pushed by batshit insane politicians for decades without recourse because Americans and indeed most westerners are too absorbed by decadence and modern material goods consumption to bother learning about anything that doesn't provide immediate satisfaction to them.

Because is not a fucking dilemma, it's a model that made sense in a particular period of time but is obsolete now that we can produce food at a faster rate. This doesn't mean that the dangers of overpopulation must be ignored. There are many things that can go wrong other than no having enough food for everyone.

To the anon(s) who said that overpopulation is not a problem:
I despise you with all my hearth
You are a brainwashed ape
Environmental catastrophe has already happened and it is due to overpopulation
We are breathing toxic air
Limited resources are being exploited at an insane pace
Entire ecosystems have been eradicated or irreversibly damaged
Western culture has shattered due to twitter populism
If we reduced population to 10% of current level extreme poverty would not be a thing
Like, whatsoever

We are doomed if we don't solve air pollution eventually. We can not keep dumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere without doing something about them. Be it through tons of trees and nature reserves or some other anti-greenhouse gas agent. Otherwise its 100% possible to make the earth inhabitable if humans spend enough time polluting and not doing anything to clean it up. Personally I think we'll solve this problem before it becomes a real issue, but the potential is still there.

The same arguments could be used against civilization at its core. Forests have existed for billions of years, are we to argue that trees shouldn't be chopped down and used for lumber at all? I said absolutely NOTHING about being attached to the growth of humanity's population, only that the idea we are nearing some catastrophe is farcical and hasn't been seriously considered by anyone remotely knowledgeable on the subject for decades. Which is utterly true. There is plentiful arable land and using modern technology we could easily feed the population ten times over. With regards to your delusions regarding the future of humanity: Our survival will be predicated on the continued advancement of technological innovation, NOT regression. Now take your puerile garbage back to the stone age where it belongs.

Your infantile evaluation of modern techniques is defeatist at its core. I am not saying technology has no limit, but that the solution to problems we have with current production is NOT to eschew them entirely --which would spell certain death for most of the world including your smoothbrain self-- but to improve upon them and reduce the occurrence of ecological disaster. There will always be some negative aspect of human society, as there would be even in your incredibly asinine "we need to go back to living like ye old Englishmen did in 1100AD." You would be bitching and moaning about something else equally pointless. The reason why me and my "cohorts" rule the world is because we realize that forward is the way to go, NOT backwards.

Now please stop typing on your electronic device that is fueled by energy producing harmful greenhouse gases, so people who are able to string coherent thoughts together can talk. Better yet, help the overpopulation problem by taking a swim in the nearest river with some lead flippers.
