Technically, physics does allow a satellite-based method to deal with climate change. Economics, on the other hand, does not. You would need to chuck an unfathomable amount of mass into orbit.

That’s… Not how shadows work… Or orbital mechanics… Or economics…

His suggestion, impossible as it is, is slightly less impossible than this.
