LIVE at 1PM EDT: They Want to Dim the Sun to Save the Earth – The Climate Realism Show

The world seems to not lack for climate alarmist Bond villains with wild schemes to “save the earth” by way of geo-engineering that ranges from the silly to the dangerous. A company is now poised to “cool the earth” by spraying the skies of the world with “sunlight-reflecting aerosols.” What could possibly go wrong?

On Episode #203 of The Climate Realism Show, we will also cover other Crazy Climate News of the Week, including how crappy it is to be a “climate migrant,” a push by alarmists to regain their policy momentum by declaring climate change a global public health crisis, and how Heartland’s push to spread climate realism in Europe has the alarmists in a bit of a panic.

Join Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, and special guest James Taylor LIVE at 1 p.m. ET on YouTube, Rumble, X, and Facebook. Participate in the show by leaving your comments and questions in the chat.

“A company is now poised to ‘cool the earth’ by spraying the skies of the world with ‘sunlight-reflecting aerosols.’ What could possibly go wrong?”

How about this:
Those same aerosols, assuming they have a persistence in the atmosphere for more than a week or so, could very possibly ALSO reflect LWIR coming off Earth’s surfaces and the lower altitude levels of the atmosphere, thereby INCREASING the net global warming that they are intended to decrease.

After all, they would be present globally 24/7/365, whereas sunlight falls on Earth’s surface only during “daylight” hours.

Simple questions merit simple answers.

You can’t beat the good old Law of Unintended Consequences!

Leftists are the GRAND MASTERS of unintended consequences, in fact everything they do has it built in! And then when it all backfires, they claim that the problem is that there is/was not enough of what they prescribe. They are so blind to their own ignorance.

When their plans fail, they blame it on Trump. Like Wily Coyote blaming the Road Runner.

If you want to save the planet, how about mandating that all cars and all roofs be white.
That should be more than enough to offset anything CO2 might do.

Won’t dimming the sun also negatively affect crop growth and food production?
You can’t eat Dim Sun.

If calcium carbonate based aerosols are used rather than SO2 based aerosols, little or no issues with chemical reactions would be experienced. The most dangerous impacts would come from the possibility of worldwide crop failures.

Diming the sun with aerosol particles is a real bad idea. Haven’t these guys experienced winter? In the Yukon and NTW last winter, temperatures plunged to -50° C, which broke all previous low temperature records.

Putting aerosol particles high up in the air risks damaging the engines of jet planes.
