At some point, we'll have to put a fine dust in the upper atmosphere.

We seem to have most of the building blocks already for renewable energy. Just need to focus on it and assemble them together... and decide it's worth giving up fossil fuel related things that are still functional.

We need some sort of a dust to touch up the oceans a bit, too. Maybe one that can tidy up the plastic and the acid.

Dust in the upper atmosphere? That is a solved problem; we can just burn more coal. Of course the world will be dirty and it will get cold everywhere, but hey at least we will be back to where we were in the early 20th century. I have a better idea how about we consume less and not spew crap into our environment.
