I'm not sure that space bubbles at the L1 point are "irreversible" - simply move them out of that point, or cease the active stabilisation and they will cease to function (and will be out of our way, as they would be a few times further away than the moon: (1) ) Other than that, I agree, it would be way to easy to rely on this kind of measure. I'd like it to be a measure to give time to "draw down our unsustainable industries". But I don't think that human nature works like that. It would be taken as a mandate to continue. In fact we might have the opposite problem: too easily reversible. What if we become dependant on it being there, and then it fails, as stuff in space easily does? What happens "when the levee breaks" ? 1) https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/L1_the_first_Lagrangian_Point https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/L1_the... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_point#L1_point https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_point#L1_point
