Marine Cloud Brightening Project

The Marine Cloud Brightening Project aims to reduce global warming by increasing the reflectivity of marine clouds. It involves spraying tiny seawater droplets into the air to make clouds whiter and more reflective, which helps them bounce more sunlight back into space. By doing so, it could cool the Earth's surface slightly and potentially mitigate some effects of climate change. The project focuses on understanding how to safely and effectively use this method on a large scale, while monitoring environmental impacts and ensuring it doesn't cause unintended consequences.
