See, this kind of thing that makes me more nervous than anthropogenic warming. Assuming they could get it right(which is a big assumption) who gets to control the thermostat? Maybe the US decides their country is more productive a few degrees cooler, and Canada ends up a frozen wasteland. Maybe China has their own plans. What is the perfect global temperature, anyway?
But I think society needs to start thinking like this. The odds of reducing atmospheric CO2 concentrations within our lifetime and our children's lifetime is nil. So we have to start treating the symptoms. Not saying we have to completely ignore the cause but more focus and more funding needs to go into things like climate engineering.
