A group of scientists has proposed building a giant space curtain to reduce global warming and shield Earth from solar radiation.
Spanning as much as 4 million square kilometers, this megastructure aimed to fight “climate change” would be located about 1 million miles from Earth, in an area known as the Sun-Earth Lagrange-1 point, according to The Messenger, a news website launched in May.
The point marks the area between the sun and the Earth where the combined gravitational forces of the star and planet create equilibrium that allows a spacecraft to be “parked,” according to Space.com.
Upon installation, the structure could reduce the amount of heat from the Sun trapped on Earth due to greenhouse gases by deflecting sunlight toward outer space, Space.com reported.
That said, according to The Messenger, it is unclear how such a solar curtain would affect the light Earth receives from the Sun or whether the blocking of sunlight heading to Earth will bring forth unexpected consequences.
The idea is being proposed by scientists who are part of the Planetary Sunshade Foundation, a group whose website declares that “climate change is getting worse.”
The amount by which global temperatures would fall once the structure is in place is “variable depending on how long it takes to cease carbon emissions, how quickly carbon can be removed from the atmosphere, and whether society wishes to partially mitigate global warming or restore pre-industrial temperatures,” Planetary Sunshade Foundation research director Liz Scott noted in a 2022 report.

I agree. I have always said that if they cared that much they could help greatly by reducing their own carbon footprint permanently as an example. And good riddance... lol
My body, for one, thrives on solar Vitamin D.
There are always unexpected consequences.
And they're too stupid to realize the sun has always been the main factor for climate on earth, the morons.
This is a serious problem that needs to be solved. Like when I’m driving, I constantly have to move my sun visor so I can see. Then there’s a curve in the road, and I have to adjust it again. The Sun always finds a way to peek around my sun visor.
Seriously, how do the oceans and carbon processing plants get sunlight with a giant shade out in space. I think this giant shade will cause man-made global warming.
I’m sure the “political” scientists can find a “consensus” solution. /sarc
In case there are any people who haven’t figured it out:
- CO2 is vital to plants and so to plant food production.
- The other component vital to the plants that are the basis on which every other life rests is sunlight.
- Simultaneously to this BS they’re trying to eradicate meat and other non-plant food production.
- The people driving this have repeatedly stated they want the human population to drop to 500 million.
Connect the dots. Right now it’s Jack Nicholson bashing in the door and the world is puzzling over whether to let the nice axe man in or maybe just put on the TV and hope he bothers someone else.
Kind of thin on facts and identification of the “genius” scientists proposing this nonsense. Should always identify the scientists by name so they can be publicly be ridiculed and mocked.
I would think this would cause issues for Hubble and the JWST.
What could possibly go wrong?
Yes.
I certainly hope to have the ‘only ten years left’ that the climate morons/fascists have been claiming for the last fifty years !

Anyone remember during THE COMING ICE AGE hoax of the 1970s that scientists proposed mining coal, grinding it to dust, mix it with oil and spread it on the Ice Fields to absorb more of the sun’s rays and INCREASE the temp of the earth and stop THE COMING ICE AGE!
Here is the link to spreading soot on the arctic!
We haven’t even warmed up to the average interglacial temps from our current Epoch, and these idiots already want to drive us back into a glaciation event?
