Seeding clouds with seawater could prevent a super El Niño

Scientists propose that seeding clouds with seawater might help cool the eastern Pacific and mitigate the worst effects of a super El Niño, potentially preventing a significant global temperature spike. This technique, known as marine cloud brightening, could theoretically shade the area and reduce warming. However, the study warns of possible unintended consequences that need careful consideration before implementation. The implications are significant, as controlling El Niño's impact could help manage extreme weather patterns and climate change effects.
