Trying to remove heat-trapping gases from Earth’s atmosphere to halt global warming is a huge undertaking. But big challenges can provoke big solutions. A recent proposal even suggested one of the most radical ideas so far: Forget about reducing carbon dioxide. Instead, just push Earth’s orbit 50% farther out from the sun, about where Mars is and where solar heating would be less intense. Problem solved. A big idea no doubt, but hardly practical. Meanwhile two much more down-to-earth big ideas to cut global warming are gaining momentum.

(A) explaining a phenomenon
