Great. We just need to find a way to vent that extra heat off into outer space. Problem solved. /s

I hear the sarcasm in your voice, but truly this is a thing. There are bands of radiation that are very transparent to our atmosphere and there is work being done with meta materials to try to shift waste energy into these bands to bleed it into space. I do conceed that the scale is impossibly large for the numbers we’re talking about, but I do find the science fascinating.

This is exactly what hurricanes do, and a lesser extent cumulonimbus clouds, starting from an atmospheric imbalance to eventually venting tropospheric heat to the upper atmosphere.
