> What other crazy ideas should we try? Stop using fossil fuels would be one.

  Of course. The loss of glaciers and polar ice is already locked in. Atmospheric carbon continues to affect the climate for > 100 years. If humans stopped emitting all carbon today, climate crisis will continue. For natural glacial formation to resume, lower than 350ppm?, we have to go beyond net negative to net negative. We've kicked off multiple negative feedback loops. We have to remove carbon faster than the tundra thaws, the oceans acidify, and the forests burn. I'm certain you know all of this. Are we just going to sit back and watch all the ice melt?
