At some point one of the big countries that's being negatively by this is going to say "screw it, let's try solar geoengineering." The cost is actually pretty small on this scale.
Sure would be nice if there was a bunch of research to draw on when that time comes, instead of just flailing away.
There is some research being done in this area, but yeah it's almost certainly going to have epic unintended consequences.
