Actually, as a skeptic on AGW and one vehemently opposed to crippling our economy my CO2 emissions rationing, I welcome this approach.

If we can show that some geoengineering trick will do the job 40 years down the road if those untested climate models are actually right, then we don’t have to wreck our economy right now using silly stuff like unreliable, low density wind power, uneconomical and fickle solar power, etc.

Furthermore, we know that the anti-AGW people, no matter what they say, are not going to let us build nuke plants the way the rest of the world is doing.
