People argue for and against modifying the weather, as if we don't do that already (accidentally AND purposely). We seed the clouds with silver iodide to bring rain. During the Vietnam war, the military brought so much rain it caused drought the following year in Africa. We burn so much paper, gas, oil, coal, and other things that we put huge amounts of co2, methane, and many other things in the atmosphere, warming the whole Earth.
We have the technology to use electromagnetics to affect the rate at which methane degrades. Don't mow the lawn and your grass grass will grow and absorb more carbon dioxide. Recycle your organic waste back to the soil and the plants will have more plant food to consume more carbon dioxide. Regenerate ocean ecosystems by feeding nanoparticles of iron to the ocean algae, feeding the rest of the food chain. Clouds can be made (cheaply) by spraying cold ocean water into the air.
Consumption of carbon dioxide is only one of the ecosystem services that would be provided if we allowed plants to grow everywhere they wanted to. Algae for food and fuel is being grown in greenhouses.
There are good feedback effects to from all our activities, such as increasing plant growth and so there's more photosynthesis absorbing co2. And there are tipping points in human behavior also. Most people now are heading toward renewables.
All we need is to get on the same page.
