Earth been warming up for Centuries..... long before effects of Green House Gases from Human Activity. Have you heard of the ICE AGE????
What's warming up the Earth?...... The SUN.
The amount of energy that radiates from the sun in one square foot is tremendous. Much of that energy is absorbed in our atmosphere and only a fraction of that energy ever makes it to the surface, yet still it's alot and we build solar panels to capture a fraction of a fraction of that power.
We can cut all Green House Gases, go back living like people in the stone age, but if you look at the history of the earth, it's been warming up long before Human Activity.
The SUN is heating up the Earth.... Period.
What's needed is to BLOCK the Sun Rays from reaching Earth Atmosphere.
What we need is a EARTH SHIELD in orbit. I bet it wouldn't need to be very big to make a huge difference. All that is needed is a thin reflective film.... there's no gravity, wind, or rain..etc.... so the amount of material/weight would be tiny.
All just my opinion/view/thinking.
