The climate models suggest that annually injecting 5 million tons of synthetic diamond dust into the atmosphere could potentially cool the Earth. (Photo: Gettty)

Scientists used advanced 3D climate models to compare various aerosols

Researchers are exploring innovative solutions to actively cool the planet

The study evaluated seven different materials, including calcite, aluminum, silicon carbide

Earth is warming, and the effects are clearly visible as extreme weather event become more intense and frequent. Scientists across the world looking for ways to cool the planet as it hits the tipping point.

A new study published in Geophysical Research Letters suggests that injecting diamond dust into the atmosphere could be an effective method to cool the planet
