CARL SAGAN HAD A BETTER IDEA:

Man-made volcanoes may cool Earth (Jonathan Leake, 8/30/09, Times of London)

THE Royal Society is backing research into simulated volcanic eruptions, spraying millions of tons of dust into the air, in an attempt to stave off climate change.

All we'd have to do is nuke Assad, Chavez, Kim, & the PRC to achieve the same effect. In addition to which, once we'd done it once no one would ever misbehave again. It's a non-proliferation regime with teeth.
