Besides the well-documented increases in PM2.5 concentrations at ground level we already have clear research on we'd also face
- ozone layer depletion
- reduced precipitation in an area already drought-stricken. As well as other difficult to predict effects on local climate and weather
- alteration of many stratospheric chemical cycles. We're talking changes to nitrogen oxide chemistry and even impacts on hydroxyl radicals which drive atmospheric cleansing capacity
- increased risk of acid rain from sulfuric acid
Like I said. The research is not there. There are many many side effects we haven't worked out yet.
And spare me the personal attacks about dishonesty, jackass
