Considering the next ice age is inevitable in normal circumstances. What terraforming options do we have to prevent an ice age? Maximizing the greenhouse effect by releasing more CO2 sounds like something worth exploring?
I also had similar thought to this. Were coming up on a minimum period in the solar cycle that produced a mini ice age, Grand solar minimum. I wonder if our co2 blanket will counteract the reduction in global temps we saw during the last grand solar min.
That is the rub isn't it? We are currently over generating green house gasses (relative to non-anthropocentric sources), so whether we want to or not we are "exploring that option."
