I can't see how this could possibly go wrong . . . except in every possible way.

    No, it can do nothing or very little but the massive amount of warming from co2 will last thousands of years even with net neutral carbon emissions. We've already been dumping tons of sulfur in the atmosphere by diesel burning. The drop in sulfur emissions from ocean shipping made a clear increase in temperature.
