Global Warming Scientist Proposal

some scientists have come up with the idea to shoot tons of sulfur and other kinds of rocks/elements in a dust form into the stratosphere of the earth creating the effect of a volcanic eruption. This would then could down the earth a couple of degrees and temporarily be a solution to prevent further warming. It sounds like an interesting idea, other scientists and the public is worried about health concerns and other issues like air quality

that just sounds like something we should leave to nature. I think the last thing our air needs is more shit in it

sounds like an interesting proposal and i think if the amount of cooling it will accomplish is substantial then i for one can deal with l.a. style air for a couple weeks.

that could be the worst idea i've ever heard in my life, worse than dropping giant ice cubes into the ocean.

it'd be fine by me if they did it over asia, or the pacific... I bet it would bring mondo storms to the pacific coastline

might work, but it might also fuck up more things

and your justification for such a statement?
you know that in certain parts of the world scientists drop dry ice into the atmosphere and it creates rain for farmers, so this isn't that new of an idea.

not just a major vulcano, a super eruption. it ususally means the extinction of 80% of the worlds species, and sends the earth into an ice age. theres been like 2 since the begining of life

hahahahahahahaha, this should be in the worst idea ever thread. Fuck us up even more. good job.
Also volcanoes emit more carbon ioxide when they erupt than humanity has produced in its existance. Global warming is natural. People cant do anything to stop it.

Hopefully the sulfure will not bring secondairy effects. Like acid rains or other unpredicted event

volcanic eruptions are actually the only source of replenishing ozone.
or so i've heard.
anyway, whatever the scientists think i'll back them up on. someone has to do something. if you don't have a better idea, then don't argue.
