I like it! Even though it is a hoax, at least it gets people thinking about a technical solution rather than a stupid Marxist stoneage solution. Man-made climate change should be a source of pride, not a dirty word. It is the invention of fire, shelter, refrigeration, air conditioning, etc.

Instead of wasting $400,000 on a pipe dream solution to a non existent problem, consider how many wells could be drilled with that money giving people in places like Haiti safe drinking water so they don’t die of dysentery or cholera?

I think this creates a dilemma for the leftists:

If the project works then it undercuts their push to say that the only solution to climate change is to dramatically reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.

But if the project doesn’t work, then how is it possible that humans can unintentionally affect the climate in one direction, but cannot intentionally affect the climate in the other? That undercuts their claim that it is us humans that cause most of the warming, which also means significant reductions in fossil fuel usage won’t have much of an effect.

And all the space junk in Earth orbit, cruising at about 17k mph, will make Swiss cheese out of it in fast fashion.

So the GW Libtards want to “remove the cause...but not the symptom.” Smart. Not.

Yes. But of course. The people with the least, have the most to lose. Ah. The mind of a progressive. Wired up backwards.

We would no more than get the giant sunshade up, and there will be a cataclysmic volcano explosion that tosses up a natural sunshade.

Then warming will be the least of our problems.

The sky will be partly Joy Behar with a 30% chance of rain.

What if we put depends on her before sending her up, would that cut the chance of rain to 20%?

How about we all just turn on our AC and open the windows? That would be just as effective!

I would suggest something cheaper: tin foil hats for GW believers

Can't find any tin foil, only that second-rate aluminum stuff!

Here is a prototype of the giant sun shade being flown in space as seen from the Earth...

This reminds me of the second Highlander movie. They tried to do the same thing but everyone started dying.

...financed by the Open Philanthropy Project, a foundation backed by Dustin Moskovitz, a co-founder of Facebook, and his wife, Cari Tuna...
