Abstract
⺠The feasibility of an Earth ring for climate engineering is analysed. ⺠Orbital dynamics of high area-to-mass ratio dust grains around Earth are modelled. ⺠The perturbations of solar radiation pressure and the J2 effect are included. ⺠Stable Sun-pointing elliptical orbits are utilised to form an Earth ring.
