Do we know what reducing solar irradiation will do for plant growth though? We might actually make the root cause worse if it decreases carbon fixation.

- SlowTao 1y agoYep, this. Same for any kind of solar shielding. Some are so fixed on controlling a single metric (Carbon/Temperature)that they may end up inadvertently influencing hundreds of other things. When simple solutions interact with complex systems, complex problems arise. As it is said, for every problem there is a solution that is simple, easy and wrong.
