Default We could have now eliminated Hurricane Katrina & Ophelia withAluminium Sequin in orbit, if we had prepared

If we had been prepared, we would have set up rockets with cargo of
aluminium sequin and as the hurricane season approached, we would have
readied ourselves for launches and that as Katrina formed we would have
launched a rocket and put aluminium sequin in orbit above Katrina path
and the resulting cooling by starving of sun rays would have downgraded
Katrina and spared the coast of destruction.


Does anyone else remain unconvinced that halting hurricanes -- in
particular, via this method -- would be of net benefit to the environment?
