The first test of a project backed to spray millions of tonnes of chalk into the stratosphere, in an attempt to 'dim the sun' and cool the Earth, could happen in June.
Harvard University experts will test the system by sending a large balloon 12 miles above the Swedish town of Kiruna and have it drop 2kg of chalk dust into the stratosphere.
The aim of the estimated $3 million mission, backed by billionaire Bill Gates, is to have the chalk deflect a portion of the sun's radiation, stop it from hitting the surface, and cool the planet.
The idea has been heavily criticised since its inception, with project director Frank Keutsch even calling the need for this scale of geo-engineering 'terrifying'.
And experts have warned that the unusual technique could be disastrous for weather systems in ways nobody can predict.
Backed by a range of private donors including Gates, the test mission is launching from Sweden as they could offer a launch by the end of this summer.

I just hope these damnfools don’t end up doing something that actually adversely affects the planet. Like an early trigger of the next ice age. That would not end well.
Someone please put him in a straightjacket & padded cell where he belongs, and call nurse Ratchet for some meds. This man is cookoo crazy.
Yes, absolutely.
The question is, would that be good, or would it be bad?
He’s a true madman...controlled by Satan.
That explains Gates.
This HAS to be a joke. Either that or Gates has contracted the same Dementia “virus” that the Child-Whisperer has. Wearing masks all the time seems to have stifled their brain cells.
Gate’s theme song.
I guess with enough money, Gates thinks he’s a world renowned virologist and expects people to listen to what he preaches about the Covid pandemic. He’s also the largest farm land owner in the country and now he thinks he’s a climate scientist? Bill Gates needs to be locked up, the mofo is at least crazy but for sure he’s a pro NWO power hungry lying thug!
I was thinking as I read the article how arrogant to think a mere man can change the earth’s weather patterns. What evil has infested them?
What an arrogant SOB. Don’t mess with Mother Nature.
IF YOU THINK IT’S BUTTER BUT IT’S SNOT IT’S CHIFFON!!!
Maybe this is Gates’ way to stop people blaming China for all their pollution - they’re just trying to mitigate global warming.
I want to read that Clancy book.
I don’t hate very much, but I can truly say that I hate this guy!
What could go wrong?
oh but don’t worry, they will make it radioactive so the dust can be tracked....🙄
OK So what happens after Bill Gates spreads all this chalk into the atmosphere and lowers the temperature . . . and then we have a couple of BIG volcanos to send even more dust into the atmosphere. Is Bill going to send a big vacuum cleaner into space to suck up all the chalk?
Someone needs to take the entire Gates family out, to dinner I mean. Let them eat the food that will quit growing without strong sunlight. After volcanic dust cooled the planet, crops failed.
Nobody really knows at what point an ice age begins, but I am thinking one way was atmospheric dust added to the suns output changing.
Warming is good for life, cooling is death dealing.
You are describing the stable climate of Earth, how quaint.
I watched the movie, it may have been THE worst I have ever finished
It’s a really good read.
