Another report on another geoengineering method that is likely too risky to try and utterly not cost-effective: Injecting aerosols into the atmosphere to slow warming (which would do absolutely nothing about ocean acidification, by the way).

If good design means longevity, Hubble is well on its way to redeeming the missteps that required high-tech space missions for vision correction before it could serve its purpose. Could it be a coinicidence that Hubble
