It’s hard to get buy-in from most people when your solution looks like the problem you’re trying to solve. It creates uncertainty. Add in the media’s approach to science, and you get fear. It’s hard enough getting science funding when people aren’t afraid of it. Toss on the modern anti-intellectual movement and now you’ve got a controversy, a system of doubt. And controversy is good for business. Controversy gets clicks, which sells ads, so the controversy will never be allowed to die. You can’t let there be a final answer to an argument that gets you paid for as long as it continues, now can you?
The thing is, we are already terraforming the earth.
We’ve been pumping CO2 and a bunch of thigns into the air for a long time
‘And look where that got us.’

I can’t see this getting approval in our lifetime, but honestly I don’t see any other solution.
Things will need to get DIRE before the world actually responds properly
