Sad that's it's come to this, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some countries try it.
- If they do it, they better expect retailation from neighbouring countries should their agricultural systems be impacted by that. We don't know the full consequences of this, but if a state does it it's a rogue state to me, one that should face some ripercussion for that.
  
  and the industrialized world, who have been Geo-engineering for the past 100+ years... what repercussions do we face as the poorest nations face the very worst of our global heating mess?
