Could Sprinkling Diamond Dust in the Atmosphere Help Reverse Global Warming?
Researchers have explored a potential solution for reversing global warming: dispersing diamond dust in the atmosphere to reflect sunlight and reduce heat reaching Earth. Though diamond dust emerged as a promising option due to its reflectivity and inert nature, the cost of implementing this solution globally would be incredibly high – approximat...

Can Diamond Dust Help Cool Earth? Exploring Costs and Geoengineering Risks
A study by Sandro Vattioni explores using 5 million tons of diamond dust annually to reduce global warming by 1.6ºC. Diamonds outperform sulfur in reflecting sunlight, but the method comes with an enormous price tag—$175 trillion. Despite its potential, experts like Douglas MacMartin question its feasibility due to costs, while others debate the...
