"Orbital 'Sunshade': A Promising Solution to Combat Climate Change"

TL;DR Summary
The Planetary Sunshade Foundation is advocating for the construction of a space-based sunshade to combat climate change. The sunshade, installed at the Sun-Earth Lagrange-1 point, would reflect sunlight back into space, reducing the trapping of heat in the atmosphere. The foundation believes that the construction of a Planetary Sunshade is feasible, utilizing existing solar sail technology and advancements in space launch systems. While some express concerns about the risks and governance challenges of solar radiation modification, proponents argue that it should be considered as part of global efforts to address climate change.
