Reflect

On topic of mitigation, last September a reflective surface was mooted.

I'm not much of a warmist but I do like efficiency, and I dislike the heat-islands which make up our major cities. Even warmists should consider what a hash these islands make of our climate models.

I was actually pondering this material for solar-sails but then the high from whatever I was smoking wore off and I read the article. The material is for structures; sails are nanomaterials supporting small packages.

What it would help for, is near-solar massive objects we're trying to store volatiles on. Objects like Atira, assuming it still has volatiles (or we bring 'em). Later it will aid that reflective ring around Venus.
