Would increasing particulates be an effective way to stop global warming?

  That's one proposal for geoengineering (either sulfate particles in the stratosphere, or marine particles over the oceans). More for a "pause" or slow down rather than a solution to stop it.

  Definitely, there was an "albedo yachts" solution that was floated a while back. Basically kicking up mist from the oceans. It's all just theory, and the repercussions are probably not well understood, but the idea is out there and implementation would be relatively inexpensive.
