Or the Neal Stephenson Novel "Termination Shock" where rogue Billionaires shoot elemental sulfur into the upper atmosphere and it works and nothing bad happens because of it.

Reading the novel I was always waiting for basic chemistry to catch up to them (There are a few reactions going Sulfur + Ozone + UV Light > acid rain/ heat trapping isolation layer/ all sorts of cool stuff) and it was a disappointmet to me this was never discussed. I expected more from Stephenson. This book read more like a hazeography of the trillionaires club.
