Hi

Watched a video with Doug (cc) today.

A personal highlight was listening to his concerns about Make Sunsets
(bcc). If I'm not mistaken, the logic is as follows

1) MS release lifting gas alongside S-compounds
2) MS plan to use H2
3) H2 is an indirect GHG, GWP100 is ~11

4) stratospheric H2 decomposes to H2O, a GHG

I'm unclear on the following
A) does the indirect GWP100 of H2 increase if it's directly released into
the stratosphere? Common sense suggests so, but I can't see figures
anywhere
B) if stratospheric wetting is a problem, why isn't jet exhaust a problem?
It's very wet - C8H18 + 12 1/2O2 => 8CO2 + 9H2O. So in thin air ~1/3 of the
engine oxygen intake ends up as water. This applies to both commercial and
geoengineering flights.
C) is the above effect enough to net off the SAI? It doesn't seem so, SO2
is a very strong negative forcing agent in the stratosphere

I'd welcome comments
