D A ILY INNOVATION BRIEF By Journalists Edward Kane & Marya nne Kane NASA'S BOLD PLAN TO FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE WITH ICE Source: Stock & NASA NASA has proposed a bold & unconventional plan to fight Climate Change by injecting the atmosphere with millions of tons of ice to cool the planet. Here are some key facts: NASA and NOAA scientists believe drying up the atmosphere could fight and help reduce the effects of Climate Change They propose injecting 2 tons of ice particles into the atmosphere every week They would essentially be seeding the atmosphere with ice They'd use high-altitude planes flying at 58,000 feet to do the seeding in the upper atmosphere The ice particles would freeze water vapor (which would fall to Earth) and dehydrate the stratosphere where water vapor turns into heat-trapping gas NASA says water vapor is Earth's most abundant greenhouse gas They would start
