Bill Gates-backed plan to dim the sun quietly moves forward

Bill Gates is now best known as a philanthropist, not the guy who started Microsoft or was the avatar for everyone's annoyance with Windows 95.

He's also known for wanting to save us from ourselves.

Now, apparently, he wants to save us from the sun.

However, while you may have been paying attention to his efforts on vaccination and lockdowns, you may not have noticed that one of Gates' most controversial causes just got a go-ahead: A project that would help block out the sun.

According to Reuters, a Harvard University project plans to test out a controversial theory that global warming can be stopped by spraying particles into the atmosphere that would reflect the sun's rays.

Oh my, this is a real bad idea. Reflective material in the stratosphere to dim the sun.

This is going to hyperdrive warming the planet.

sunlight—————concave stratosphere-——concentrates rays like a magnifying glass.

The stratosphere is not stagnate. There’s no way to control the reflective material.

Wrong, wrong, wrong!

What is the “CORRECT” temperature for planet Earth?
What is the “CORRECT” amount of CO2 in the atmosphere for planet Earth?

This is INSANE ARROGANCE of puny little men who think they are the Masters of the Universe and think they know what the CORRECT answers to those questions are. GOOD GOD! Tower of Babel level arrogance on steroids.

Many of these DEMENTED EVIL HUMANISTS think that man is a bad parasite on the precious Earth Mother, rather then God’s glorious crowning achievement of Creation. Their whole mindset is PERVERSE and EVIL. Population control (hello Bill Gates) = let’s control the bad parasite infestation.

“Global dimming”, caused by air pollution, used to be a big worry because it disrupts rainfall patterns (especially the tropical monsoon) and causes droughts, famines, etc. If the rains are disrupted in the tropics there will be heatwaves instead. This has the potential to make whole regions uninhabitable. Many of the effects are what they claim climate change will do. They’re trying to bring their catastrophe scenarios to fruition.

And don’t forget a plan to eliminate all palmetto bugs. I hate them. Maybe eliminate all ants too.

Bill, riddle me this. If your reflective mist reflects sunlight won’t it also reflect existant heat? Won’t this turn into a closed-loop effect forever increasing the Earth’s heat?
Bill needs to be put out of his misery and his fortune dedicated to the eradication of others who would save us from ourselves.

We experienced “global dimming” in the year or two after the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa. Far ranging crazy weather patterns.

I don’t know what to believe here. One reason all the commie environmentalist hate that spray from balloons plan is that if it works it would cost next to nothing. The Nature article said maybe $10B a year.

Greendealies want to have their total transformation of society and would be very sad if all this got done with a bunch of cheap balloons.

Not forever. The particles fall down in a year or two.

Longwave radiation from the stratosphere is insignificant. Gates's particles will warm the stratosphere, just like after Pinatubo. But other than a minor amount of warming during polar winter, the troposphere cooled a lot after Pinatubo. The loss of short wave energy far exceeded the extra longwave energy.

I know what to believe: the earth is not warm enough. We still have massive polar ice sheets and any significant reduction in solar energy risks triggering an ice age. The actual problems from too much CO2 like the drop in ocean pH won't be solved by this, but they don't need to be solved right away anyway.

Well all that needs to happen for Gates plan to work is just start a Global Nuclear war..Nuclear winter!

has been stalled for years by controversies - including that it could discourage needed cuts in greenhouse gas emissions,”


Maybe Bill is up to something!
Or, really, the “greenhouse gas” cuts are not about climate change at all!
Co2 stimulates plant growth, it is great for the world. But “climate change” trumps everything! But if there was alternative solution to climate change? No, it cannot be!
The above just shows that the climate change is bogus, all they want is to cut CO2.
The “co2 needed cuts” are just to harm US and European economies and bring the desired equity and global government.

"There's just one small problem: contrails dissipate, they don't spread out and cover the sky."

No, they don't "dissipate". They disperse to the point where they are not visible to the eye...but the particles are there until they either react with something, or settle out. That is just chemistry.
