Abstract
⺠We investigate using dust clouds at the first Lagrange point for geoengineering. ⺠Model the zero-velocity curve in the four body problem using an asteroid at L1. ⺠The reduction in insolation at Earth is found and compared to 1.7% requirement. ⺠Largest near Earth asteroid, Ganymed, can reduce the insolation by 6.58%.
