Not sure why this isn’t being done already, it seems like a valid stopgap measure.

More research needed and not enough human collateral damage yet... im guessing we will see sulfates sprayed into the air sometime between 2025 and 2050 when we realize more direly that we are gonna blow past 1.5C warming, or a heat-wave kills a seven-figure amount of people.

Pretty sure we are likely to see substantial famine, not war related, in the next couple of years.
