My daughter takes Aikido lessons. One of the instructors believes in the "Ki" energy and the senior instructor sees it as a physical discipline. They have a long running argument, and everything that the one instructor can do to demonstrate the "Ki" the other can do without claiming special powers.
If there is some "force" it does not appear to be able to do anything we would consider supernormal.
The problem with this (apart from it being more expensive than cutting emissions) is that nobody knows what the affect of cutting significant amounts of light from reaching the atmosphere will be. It is UV hitting the upper atmosphere that creates the ozone layer. If we block significant amounts of light this could cause larger holes in the ozone layer and increased UV levels in the sunlight that does get through. UV also plays a pert in breaking down some pollutants, so this could change the chemistry of the atmosphere. And what about the effects on agriculture in areas shielded by the ring?

I can believe it. As a 45 year-old male driving an economy car I pay £400 a year for insurance, and high performance cars would cost me twice this.
