Only through carefully coordinated international agreement and as an addition to mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions, assuming the latter was deemed inadequate: royalsociety.org/news/2025/11...
Solar radiation modification could reduce global temperatures but is no substitute for reducing emissions, says Royal Society | Royal Society
A Royal Society briefing, published today, considers the potential impacts of solar radiation modification (SRM) if deployed globally, in a scientifically informed way, across both hemispheres and for...

No. But at the top of our new large water tank is the computer that assesses various in/out temperatures & weather conditions to fine tune things. There’s a survey before install to assess heat loss from each room so they know if to install bigger radiators and they’d answer these kinds of questions

Not noticed any issues? Our air to water heat pump is designed to work effectively and without issue down to -10C snd below and has inbuilt frost settings so shouldn’t be an issue in the UK, though regularly checking for debris or snow build up is also recommended.

You could take a look at the underlying research article I shared & references within: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Contrails, NOx + water vapour all trap outgoing longwave radiation for example, though the precise calculation depends on time scale since CO2 stays in the atmosphere much longer
Aviation passenger carbon footprint calculator with comprehensive emissions, life cycle coverage, and historical adjustment - Communications Earth & Environment
A new aviation carbon footprint tool improves accuracy and transparency by incorporating nitrogen oxide, water vapor, and contrail impacts, life cycle emissions from aircraft and airports, and adjusti...
