Or we could have the same effect without any direct terrestrial detestation or massively expensive projects.

Even then it’s incredibly risky and a bulletproof scientific model is needed to understand exactly what would happen before anything large scale is done.

You see, that's exactly the kind of thing we keep telling mad scientists, but they're always saying, "Ze model is bulletproof. Vatch!". And then, foom it goes again.

...and raise local temperatures, just a bit...
Yeah but if im nearby we'll raise the global IQ by a lot. Im super dumb.
Hmm... This could be useful for fighting climate change! What if we artificially triggered an eruption in the Yellowstone caldera? Maybe a few hydrogen bombs at the right locations could weaken the crust enough to trigger a huge eruption, which would lower global temperatures for a few years.
