Maybe they should ask you, you have all the research and experimentation answers already.

What actual experiments are planned to take place?

Awwww don’t be salty.
I’m only saying it’s a stupid idea and common sense says spraying chemicals around the skies to make man made heat vanish in to space wouldn’t even make a good Netflix movie, let alone a shred of difference to the planet.

You tell me ?
I’ve got the gist, spray the skies, bounce heat into space.
Wind, weather, the climate won’t get in the way of some man made vapour will it ?

So you don't know what they are planning, but it will be chemicals, and it won't work anyway. Ok.

The UK has not officially committed to spraying the skies as part of its climate change strategy, but the concept you’re referring to is likely solar geoengineering, particularly stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI). This involves spraying reflective particles (like sulfur dioxide or calcium carbonate) into the upper atmosphere to reflect a small fraction of sunlight and cool the planet.
As of now (2025), the UK government has not approved or deployed any such program. However:
- Some research institutions in the UK, such as the University of Oxford, are studying the science, ethics, and risks of solar geoengineering.
- The UK has expressed interest in international governance and regulation of such technologies, especially through forums like the United Nations.
Critics warn of potential side effects, such as:
Disrupted weather patterns
Acid rain
Uneven global impacts
A “termination shock” if spraying were stopped suddenly
Sounds a joy to me
That's basically ground up Rennies!

Like thinking "I'll keep on treading in dog ****, but keep a can of Febreeze handy" is a good plan.
If we have learned anything about the nature of humans and humanity, it is that "we" typically only do anything when we really have no other option.
Mooting capers such as "Sun dimming" will only give succour to the fossil fuel and oil interests, allowing them to carry on as they were and are.

So it’s a load of 5hit, glad we agree
A good analogy.

So you agree spraying the skies with poison isn’t a good idea, glad we cleared that up.
I have said all along that it is much better to reduce greenhouse emissions and that this sort of geo-engineering would be a last resort.
