The IPCC has looked into this in some detail and regularly updated their summaries of the latest science for years. They consider solar radiation management a high risk option compared with all the other options they have documented in detail:
No such solutions exist. Cutting back CO2 emissions by a few percent is not enough. Anything else is ignoring significant economic and political realities. There are no widely-accepted and known solutions to climate change that don't involve major ecological devastation and the destruction of all our coastal cities.
That's why we're looking at options like this.
