It’s already been done see China and India.

Do these MORONS even consider how YUGE the atmosphere is?

It's big but not infinite. The current level of jet engine exhaust, mostly water vapor, adds to cirrus clouds and produces global warming.

Condensation trails, or contrails, generated from high-altitude aircraft exhaust may affect climate because they can persist for many hours. Like their natural counterparts, these anthropogenic cirrus clouds reflect solar radiation and absorb and emit thermal infrared radiation causing a radiative forcing that depends on many factors, especially contrail optical depth and coverage (Sassen 1997; Meerkötter et al. 1999).

https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/1520-0442(2004)017%3C1671:CCTAC%3E2.0.CO;2

The long and short of it is that the high clouds trap more heat energy (all day and all night) than the amount of solar energy they reflect to space. So we are already playing with the upper atmosphere and causing some global warming. That said, I think it's an extremely bad idea to deliberately cause global cooling. Even minor natural cooling events, like Pinatubo, caused crop disasters. The lower sunlight created poor growing conditions for diverse areas like tropical corals and northern forests.

Well, it would be easy to reverse the effects if it backfires. /s

A better solution is to move the earth and associated satellites several million miles due west of the sun.

Yep, THE SUN DOESN’T NEED THE HELP OF HARVARD/YALE “SCIENTISTS” TO DIM ITSELF.

***NEWS FLASH***

The U.N. has already been doing this for years. Google Geoengineering and it comes right up. Another name for it is chem trails. Which stand for chemical trails. The U.N. spraying liquid metal in the stratosphere in the hope to reflect the Sunlight. So the Earth does not “heat up”.

Besides from its wack job nutball conspiracy theorist reasons it does have harmful affects on people. This is because the liquid metal fallls to the ground and we inhail it. Anyway, here is one web site dedicated to it.

Its a very stupid headline. They are not proposing to actually reduce sun output, but to block solar radiation from reaching the earth’s surface by polluting the atmosphere.

It often does pay to read the short excerpts, not just the headline.

Umm, and the so-called scientist advocating this sh*t idea are absolutely idiots who watched too much Highlander II.....

I don't see anything different than what they've been hitting us with already (chemtrails) except that now they'll be building a super plane to dump toxins and metals on us.

They will do this without anyone's permission and without anyone stopping them either.

Our food supply is already affected by this and now it will double the problems.

The last time we had a little ice age only two magnetic fields of the sun went out of phase.

And when was that? How does she know that? I call BS!

The vapor trails you see in the sky are water vapor. They actually cause global warming, net. They reflect some sunlight back to space during the day, but reflect heat back to earth 24x7.

In general high clouds (with cold tops) cause global warming and low cloud with low warm tops cause global cooling, although there are other factors like seaonality (e.g. when there's no sun in high latitude winter, then clouds almost always cause warming). Another factor is what is beneath the clouds. Snow is a great reflector of solar energy, and clouds are usually darker than snow as seen from space.

Vapor trails in the sky are water vapor, not “chem” anything. Jet fuel has lots of hydrogen and burning it creates more water by weight than the weight of the fuel.

:) You got to admit...sometimes they, that is to say the "Intelectuals", can be quite entertaining... :)

So after realizing that humans are changing the planets climate, progressive scientists have determined that changing the climate is the best way to stop the changing of the climate. Film at 11.
