Let's solve man-made global warming using man-made global cooling!

So, in the words of a friend of mine on this article, apparently the scientists, politicians, environmentalists, et al who support taking action on climate change are now officially "smarter than God". A report today in the Huffington Post, discusses in detail how the current administration, as well as leaders in other countries, have been talking about the possibility of taking radical, climate changing actions to stave off global warming. These radical actions would involve intentionally spewing pollutants (huh?) into the upper atmosphere to force cooling of the planet by blocking the sun's rays. It is described as a man-made volcano effect. Reducing carbon emissions is one thing. After all, it is coming anyway with hydrogen engines, nuclear, solar and wind power replacing coal fired plants, etc. All these things are happening, just too slowly for the global warming alarmists. So, for the record, the world is still recovering from the little ice age. The temperatures were far warmer before then than they are now and guess what, it was wetter, not drier, so there goes all the gloom and doom about droughts. In addition, the global warming theory relies on the idea that the upper atmosphere needs to warm in order to justify the theory. Guess what, satellites have been recording upper atmosphere warming for decades. It hasn't. The only warming has occured at ground level, not in the upper atmosphere. The theory relies on this to be true, so without upper atmospheric warming, it isn't true. Finally, everyone who thinks I'm the nutcase on this issue needs to read "Shattered Consensus: the true state of global warming" by Patrick J. Michaels. Actually, he's the editor, but this book details how the IPC report and various scientists have gotten it very wrong because they simply refuse to consider other evidence. It also shows that the "consensus" we hear about so frequently doesn't actually exist. So, back to the article. We want to stop global warming by creating global cooling? This is radical and dangerous thinking. They can't get their own theories right about what is causing the planet to warm in the first place and why it was cooling in the 60s either. Is it wise to therefore think we can possibly get it right with geoengineering as it is called? My gosh, we'll end up turning the planet into one big ice ball if we continue to listen to these people. Recent evidence clearly shows that unusually extreme solar activity is most likely to blame for our recent warming trend (assuming you can call stable or decreasing temperatures over the last 11 years a warming trend). However, solar scientists have also stated the activity has stopped and is decreasing. Guess what people! Coldest winter in 30 years! Unusually active solar activity decreasing! Sounds pretty good that the sun has more to do with warming and cooling of the planet than we do. However, none of this is relevant. What person in their right mind (who isn't trying to prove their lifetime theories true) would want us spewing pollutants into the atmosphere to intentionally create a massive volcano effect. To truly make this work, it would have to be done on a global scale. We are talking blocking out the sun's rays on purpose. Nobody else thinks this idea smacks of treating the disease with the disease itself? Sorry, I can't go along with this idea, mostly because I don't trust the scientists or the government to get it right. If they don't get it right, it could be more catastrophic than the very thing they are trying to prevent/solve/whatever.
