MIT proposes Brazil-sized fleet of “space bubbles” to cool the Earth

[Disir]

Bubble block: Instead of injecting particles into Earth’s atmosphere to cool the planet, an interdisciplinary team of MIT researchers proposes we take solar geoengineering to space.

Specifically, the group is investigating what might happen if we positioned a shield made of bubbles at Lagrangian Point 1 — a point in space where the gravitational pulls of the Earth and the sun form a sort of equilibrium that would keep the shield in orbit there indefinitely.

A raft of “space bubbles” could be used to reverse global warming, according to an MIT group's solar geoengineering proposal.

This is a bit interesting. Enough is still not defined clearly but.... this is weird.

Hmmm, I do believe the recent activity of solar flares are the cause of the heat up of the planet and a bubble to reflect some of the Sun energy is kind of interesting but what damage will we cause if we cause a cool down that throws us into a Ice Age?

Unnecessary no climate emergency is developing, and it is currently cooling for nearly 7 years.

I'm happy that they're researching this idea rather than flailing about trying something whose effects are yet unforeseeable.

What could possibly go wrong with trying to cool the earth in the middle of an ice age

"Futurama" thought of it first ...

Stupid ideas like that is why the human race gets reduced to a small handful of people every 12,000 years or so

You can have an ice age in one area but ndot in another. One of the things that I am going to go hunt down when I have time is the UK is headed for an ice age because "a wind" has disappeared or is disappearing. I read this about maybe 10 years ago and then there was a bunch of BS printed online and I was done.

It's because the present temperature is so close to the threshold for extensive northern hemisphere continental glaciation and has lands for glaciers to spread easily that people should not forget the 33 glacial cycles of the past 3 million years.

Scientists predict 'mini ice age' could hit UK by 2030

A model of the Sun's magnetic activity suggests the River Thames may freeze over within two decades, experts say.

One of the big advantages to this particular idea is that it can be done away with at a moment's notice. All one need do here is pop all these bubbles.

If I have some time this weekend, I will see if I can't find the wind stream that shifted or is not even happening anymore by the UK.

I think 10 years ago I posted a similar idea, but to put a giant pair of Schwarzenegger Gargoyle sunglasses into orbit, you know, climate change. We flip them up if it get too cold. Science!

Yes, Old Rock, this is indeed a Crisis inside a Catastrophe wrapped around an Emergency. There is only one real permanent solution and I've contact my friend at Goodwin Proctor about a patent on it.

See those sunglasses?

I'm making a pair of Gargoyles 500 miles long and putting them in geosynchronous orbit. They will be tied into a computer that monitors "Dire ManMade Global Warming!!!!" Posts on Internet sites and whenever a Warmer posts a "Dire ManMade Global Warming!!! the glasses will flip down to repel the suns rays and cool down the affect area.

I estimate the glaciers will return in about 5 years burying everything north of the Ohio River under 60 feet of ice
