Once the nozzle is fine-tuned, the plan is to use a barge to shoot the salt particles into the sky and see what happens.

What could go wrong?

The project needs several more years and millions of dollars in funding before its widespread use.

Of course you need more money, "Science" is expensive.

and it’s designed to fight global warming by making clouds over the ocean thicker and brighter so they reflect more sunlight and cool the planet.

Less sunlight would then hit the ocean and be used by algae to convert carbon dioxide to oxygen, thus keeping up CO2 levels and reducing oxygen levels.

Who needs oxygen anyway?

Ok, chemists, let me know if I make a mistake here;

Water, a compound that can “naturally” exist in 3 states, liquid, solid, and gas.

Salt, a compound that always wants to return to it’s only state, solid.

Hence when salt water evaporates, only water becomes gaseous, salt stays behind.

If this plan were feasible wouldn’t salt be drawn up from the ocean during evaporation, and stay there long enough to brighten the clouds?
When they spray this mixture, wont only the water evaporate leaving the salt particles to fall back to earth?

Are the going to suspend gravity to hold their spray in the air long enough to evaporate?

Am I crazy, or does this BS not fail a 6th grade science class?

Curious minds want to know.

This reads like the prequel to “Snowpiercer” or another Ice Age movie.

Let’s pray this horrible plan can be undone - - we could be going into a cooling period. It could be a disaster.
