Scientists Will Copy Effects Of A Huge Volcano Eruption To Block The Sun’s Rays And Fight Global Warming In £2.3m Study Funded By Bill Gates

As part of a £2.3million (US$3million) experiment partly-funded by Microsoft’s Bill Gates, a team from Harvard University will spray tiny chalk particles into the atmosphere. Scientists hope this will have a similar effect to an erupting volcano releasing sulphur dioxide, which has a cooling effect (pictured: Steam rising from Fuego Volcano, Guatemala)
