Scientists warn that in 2024, humanity will face even greater waves of heat, drought, and forest fires than last year. To avoid such a scenario, scientists around the world are developing ambitious plans to curb climate change.

This is reported by the Daily Mail.

In particular, NASA is proposing a radical plan to combat climate change, which involves the introduction of millions of tons of ice into the Earth's atmosphere to cool the planet. SSPDaily learned more about it.

The researchers are expected to send planes to an altitude of 17.6 km, which is 6 kilometers higher than commercial aircraft.

These high-altitude boards will spray ice particles into the upper atmosphere, which, in turn, will freeze water by removing water vapor before it turns into greenhouse gas emissions that keep heat from escaping into space, eventually leading to higher temperatures on Earth.

The authors of the study also note that their plan is not aimed at reducing the impact of carbon dioxide. It only provides for the cooling of the Earth's atmosphere by 1/70, which is equal to the amount of heat that is attributable to carbon dioxide.

It is assumed that ice particles will be injected into the Earth's atmosphere at a point in the western Pacific Ocean, an area the size of Australia. This point was chosen because the tropopause (the boundary separating the troposphere from the stratosphere) over the tropical western Pacific is a crucial factor in determining the amount of water vapor that is transferred to the stratosphere.

Scientists have previously reported that ancient pathogens that have been locked away for hundreds of thousands of years are beginning to emerge from permafrost due to climate change, with about 1% of them posing a significant risk.
