Models show a 90 percent reduction of the magnitude of climate change
Researchers at the Carnegie Institution's Department of Global Ecology are looking to optimize climate change reduction by injecting sulfates into the stratosphere. George Ban-Weiss, lead author of the study, along with his team of Carnegie scientists, have studied how the injection of aerosols of sulfate into the stratosphere will affect Earth's chemistry and climate, and which aerosol distribution pattern will bring them closest to their climate goals.
To do this, Ban-Weiss and his team used a global climate model with different sulfate aerosol concentrations depending on latitude to run five simulations. They then determined what distribution of sulfates would bring them closest to climate goals by using the results from the simulations in an optimization model. These distributions were then tested in the global climate model to see how close they came to these goals.

We’re scrood ping.
They are going to get us all killed!
More idiotic epicycles from the criminally stupid.
When coal power plants did this, they were sued by the EPA.
F***** IDIOTS. THERE IS NO GLOBAL WARMING TO “FIGHT”
How'd THAT work out for 'em?
The Rainman
“Step back non-believers
Or the rain will never come
Someone start that fire burning
Somebody beat the drum
He said some may think I’m crazy
For making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over
You folks are gonna see some rain
They all just stood there staring
Trying to believe
But there was one named Lizzy Cooper
Who said he was a lying cheat
She said you call yourself the Rainman
Well you ought to be ashamed
Starting all these people dreaming
Thinking you can make it rain”
Cool, messing with the law of unintended consequences is fun!!!!!!
Weren’t sulfates one of the causes of acid rain??
Hel-looo!?
It’s now “global climate disruption!”
That is all
This is a little different - getting them up to this altitude does actually induce cooling
I thought that sulphur compounds in the atmosphere caused acid rain.
Doesn’t Venus have a lot of sulfates in the air?
Sulfates give me a headache.
Good Grief...ridiculous...might hurry the oncoming IceAge.
**************************************EXCERPT***************************************
"Past computer model simulations have shown that injecting sulfate uniformly into the stratosphere could reduce the surface temperature of the Earth, but the equator would be over cooled and the poles under cooled.
I think we’d be better off shooting the researchers into the atmosphere.
They want to do this so when things go bad they will say it’s global warming and we need to do more of this to fix it...
