Why Bill Gates Is Funding Solar Geoengineering Research

"Modeling studies have found that it could reduce the intensity of heat waves, for instance, apparently it could reduce the rate of sea level rise. It could reduce the intensity of tropical storms," said Andy Parker, project director at the Solar Radiation Management Governance Initiative. The technology is not far from being ready and it's affordable, but it could cause massive changes in regional weather patterns and eradicate blue sky.
