Scientists suggest building a massive shield in space, which would absorb excess amount of solar rays, stabilize climate and save the entire human kind of the most dangerous threat such as Global Warming.

According to the scientists’ plans, hundreds and thousands of metal "rubbish" will be dumped in the upper atmospheric layers. In addition, billions of tiny metal balls will serve as a special barrier preventing rays of the Earth’s closest star from reaching our planet, informs The Observer.

Scientists from the National laboratory of Lawrence Livermore in California who suggested the scheme, claim that such temperature decrease will also benefit crops, since damaging solar rays will be liquidated.
Ah, THERE’S the Kalifornia connection!
I don’t know if this article was any less kooky before the Russian translators got ahold of it... |
