Elon Musk Proposes Solar Shade to Combat Climate Change

Elon Musk has proposed using satellite-based solar radiation management to combat climate change, a highly controversial and currently impractical geoengineering approach that involves deploying large satellite constellations to control sunlight reaching Earth. Experts warn of the enormous costs, technical challenges, and potential unintended consequences of such a plan, and Musk has not indicated any concrete plans for SpaceX to pursue this technology. Nonetheless, his interest may stimulate further debate and innovation in the field of climate geoengineering.
