Scientists Are Tinkering With Clouds to Save the Great Barrier Reef Super-reflective clouds could shelter coral from scorching sunlight. But environmentalists are concerned that such plans could prolong our addiction to fossil fuels. quote:It’s a sweltering summer in Australia, and the corals on the Great Barrier Reef are showing early signs of stress. The authority that manages the largest coral reef system in the world is expecting another bleaching event in the coming weeks—if that happens, it will be the sixth time since 1998 that spikes in water temperatures wipe out swathes of corals that are home to countless marine animals. Three of these bleaching events, which make corals more susceptible to disease and death, have happened in the last six years alone. When corals experience extreme and prolonged heat stress, they expel the algae living in their tissues and turn completely white. This can have devastating impacts on the thousands of fish, crabs and other marine species that rely on the reefs for refuge and food. To slow the rate at which ocean warming is bleaching the coral, some scientists are looking to the skies for a solution. Specifically, they’re looking at clouds.

imo i don't really have a problem with small scale testing like that. shooting a little salt into the atmosphere is not going have huge effects elsewhere and it certainly isn't going to be some self-perpetuating cycle on its own but of course if / when it works people will try doing it on a huge scale

the word doom comes from an old-Germanic word for judgment so that is pretty funny in this context.

it does snow there every year, if only for a handful of days, so it's not unbelievable. of course thanks to climate change these rare events will happen with less and less predictable frequencies

the homosapiens planet absolutely will engage a mass-scale atmospheric dimming event and you need to maker your peace with this sooner than later it's simultaneously the simplest/lowest effort to "unfuck" things and also the most potentially disastrous mitigation effort we could do, so 100% chance we'll do it

It's launching aerosols into the atmosphere and probably triggering World War III since doing it at a global scale will absolutely gently caress with food production throughout the world. The best part is that it's wildly temporary so you really, really cannot stop. Stop shoving sulfates into the atmosphere and you're going to get temperatures bouncing back within a matter of years, which I'm sure will produce very normal effects on the climate. Also does nothing to help the oceans.

It's the perfect answer if there's a technology just a few years away which will solve the real problem. Man, Transarctica future here we come.

Maintenance will be legendary. they'll probably deploy one or two, find it does mostly fuckall and doesn't last, and funding will run dry but fret not, the status quo must flow so we will do every harebrained idea to keep jizzing off more oil as it's the only palpable option.
