Sun blocked from reaching the earth’s surface in “The Matrix”
Scientists plan to mimic the effects of a massive volcanic eruption in a bid to tackle global warming.
Plans to geoengineer the atmosphere by blocking out sunlight have been floated before, but an experiment launched next year by Harvard researchers will be the first to test the theory in the stratosphere.
The team will use a balloon suspended 12 miles above Earth to spray tiny chalk particles across a kilometre-long area, with the intention of reflecting the Sun’s rays away from the planet.
In doing so, they will attempt to replicate on a small scale the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991.
During this event, the volcano spewed 20 million tonnes of sulphur dioxide into the stratosphere, creating a haze that cooled the planet by 0.5C for around 18 months – returning the Earth to…

  1. The real cause of anthropocentric warming will continue. We can’t seem to face what is necessary. Remember that commercial for shampoo from time ago – ‘I told two friends, and they told two friends, and so on, and so on’? That’s human overpopulation. Blotting out the sun isn’t going to help.

  2. Quit breeding.
    Quit eating meat or at least have the self-discipline to eat a little less of it.
    Quit using fossil fuels.

    All of these pie-in-the-sky alternatives won’t work, and it may already be too far gone. 😦
