This is just a silly idea and doesn't fix all the problems, except heat. Could we position a sheet, or a carpet of asteroids in a Lagrange point around the Ear

This is just a silly idea and doesn't fix all the problems, except heat.
Could we position a sheet, or a carpet of asteroids in a Lagrange point around the Earth, or as a sort of reverse Dyson sphere?
I heard that such a thing could be used to cool down Venus.
That doesn't address the ocean acidification, or mass extinctions, etc. Certain high-light plants would also likely perish without intervention. Also, solar energy on Earth would be stifled.
- lazysheepherd 8y agoProblem I see is not climate change really. Real problem is not that we have problems, but the fact that we create problems. Unless human society transform into a more reactive structure, we will generate new problems or stand short in reacting naturally generated ones. And one of those problems will see the end of us if not climate change. It is much like playing Russian roulette in the risk of extinction. We just may avert the climate change but some next problem will be our bullet.
