UK Government To Approve Geoengineering Experiments To “Dim The Sun”
The UK government is “within weeks” going to approve demented geoengineering experiments at a cost of £50 million to reflect sunlight away from Earth, according to reports.
What could possibly go wrong?
The UK’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency (Aria) is funding trials in an effort to make the UK one of the world’s leading authorities on geoengineering research, the Daily Mail and others report.
It's May next week and in the UK it's cold and cloudy and raining. People are paying hundreds of pounds a month to heat small homes. Yet here comes the government saying they're going to spend £50 million on blocking out The Sun… https://t.co/zS887uXu51 Absolutely DERANGED.

The reports outline that the experiments will focus on Sunlight Reflection Methods (SRM), including Stratospheric Aerosol Injection (SAI) and Marine Cloud Brightening (MCB).
SAI involves injecting tiny reflective particles, such as sulphur dioxide, into the stratosphere to mimic the cooling effect of volcanic eruptions, while MCB uses ships to spray sea-salt particles into low-lying clouds to enhance their reflectivity.
They cite evidence from emissions on shipping routes and volcanic eruptions, like the 2014 Iceland event, suggesting these methods could temporarily cool the planet by reflecting sunlight back into space.
Professor Jim Haywood from the University of Exeter highlighted the potential of these techniques, noting that ship emissions have historically brightened clouds, creating a dimming effect. However, the 2020 reduction in sulphur dioxide emissions from shipping led to a spike in warming, underscoring the complex balance of such interventions.
Aria’s programme, led by Professor Mark Symes, will include small-scale, controlled outdoor tests to gather critical real-world data. These trials aim to assess whether SRM can prevent catastrophic climate tipping points, such as the collapse of ocean currents or ice sheets. Alongside outdoor experiments, the programme will fund climate monitoring, modelling studies, indoor tests, and public attitude surveys, the report further notes.
Potential side effects of geoengineering include regional droughts, crop failures, or shifts in weather patterns. A 2015 study by the Geomar Helmholtz Centre suggested that even combined geoengineering methods might not prevent temperatures from rising beyond 2°C by 2100, and abrupt cessation could trigger rapid warming, known as “termination shock.”
It’s clear that geoengineering experiments have already been underway for years, now that climate alarmism has been relentlessly pushed for decades, it’s been deemed acceptable to disclose this particular plan to the public.
In the U.S. some States, in addition to Federal government agencies under the Trump administration are seeking bans on such radical geoengineering activity.
