I recall the oceans absorb solar heat, so to cool the earth we could

Maybe Christmas tree foil or that glitter stuff kids use with Elmer's

Nah; a better solution would be to put something big between the Earth
and the sun if it's too hot, a big mirror or a bunch of little ones
somewhere up there if it's too cool.

The technology and materials exist; cost is the biggie.



You are kidding, right?
