Here’s a reference: https://www.wired.com/2008/06/ff-geoengineering/
“Geoengineering schemes sound like they’re pulled straight from pulp sci-fi novels: Fertilize the oceans with iron in order to sequester carbon dioxide; launch fleets of ships to whip up sea spray and enhance the solar reflectivity of marine stratocumulus clouds; use trillions of tiny spacecraft to form a sunshade a million miles from Earth in perfect solar orbit. They all may seem impractical, but among a small but growing set of climate scientists, one idea that Wood and Teller started pushing in the late 1990s (before Teller’s death in 2003) is gaining acceptance: Inject sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere to reflect a portion of the sun’s rays back into space, thus cooling the planet.”

Sulfur dioxide is one of the pollutants the government requires to be scrubbed from emissions by autos, power plants, etc. So now the best and brightest think it should be sprayed back into the atmosphere? Makes perfect sense, not.
But don't you DARE do it to produce more food for wild salmon resulting in a higher harvest.
