I love this idea of a sun-shade at the L1 Lagrange point http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/envs501/downloads/Geoengineering%20SCIAM%202008.pdf … https://www.pnas.org/content/103/46/17184 … But how to offset the cost? Mine BTC out at L1 w/ massive solar power and cooling? Seems insane, but then you see things like https://www.planetaryresources.com/2018/10/consensys-acquires-planetary-resources/ … and think "what if..."

As a very expensive stopgap maybe. But we ultimately need to sequester all that CO2 and SO2 to return to a healthy environment, at which point the solar shade would have to be gotten rid of. I don’t think the timelines work out in any case.

Do you have a favorite means of sequestration?
