Either we will choose these temporary measures to buy more time or billions will die.
It is a matter of time until we try it.
I would suggest mining asteroids, using the material to craft thin foil mirrors with 3 axis gyroscopes then positioning them at L1 Lagrange in order to selectively reduce incoming solar radiation to a safe, custom level, but obviously our ruling psychopaths will simply use it to block light to countries that don't pay up, and to focus it on countries to burn away undesirables.
And of course then we'll all have to pay a sunlight bill.
We're going to have nuclear fusion before we have asteroid mining. And I'm not saying that fusion is anywhere close.
