My understanding is that current consensus is that adding black carbon to the
stratosphere would be a bad idea, so the paper proposing using it for lofting
is unlikely to be implemented.
But what if we used forest fires as a natural(ish) source

Besides the effects on stratospheric circulation and chemistry,
stratospheric warming caused by sulfate aerosols reduces the effectiveness
of what we are trying to achieve. The main intent is to increase sunlight
reflection. Part of this cooling effect is offset by stratospheric warming.
