Outrageous $200 trillion climate hack proposes blasting diamonds into the atmosphere
SMRTR summary
Scientists are exploring pulverized diamond dust as a solar geoengineering tool to combat global warming. The study suggests dispersing 5 million tons of diamond particles annually in the upper atmosphere could lower global temperatures by nearly 2.9°F, costing an estimated $200 trillion over 45 years. While diamond dust performed better than other aerosols in computer models, practical and economic challenges make sulfur a more likely candidate for real-world implementation. Experts believe such research is valuable for understanding potential climate intervention methods.
