Launching a million tonnes of moon dust around Earth could dim sunlight across our planet by 1.8 per cent. This would reduce the global temperature, but whether it would be worth the resources, and the risks involved in such a strategy, are unclear #MoonDust #GlobalWarming #ClimateCrisis

@MJmusicinears personally, I don‘t think solar radiation management (in its various forms) will ever be tried in earnest. But how the very idea of dimming the sun fares in the court of public opinion may be a good indicator for the level of hope or desperation we have concerning out ability to get the climate crisis under control.
