This may be a cost effective and reasonable way to put a big band aid on our climate issue. This would not be a solution, but could help significantly for the immediate situation.

As these boats would inject salty water vapor into the atmosphere, the brilliant white color of the formed cloud would greatly reduce the local atmospheric temperature. Enough of these systems working together could help reduce global warming. This is a band aid, not a long term solution.

I like this particular approach because it does not involve putting chemicals or large man made machines into the atmosphere, salty clouds are not too different from naturally forming clouds. The water would eventually precipitate and return to the ecosystem. This is also good, we do not need a massive clean up operation to later remove man made materials. In other words, we don't postpone one problem by creating another.

This is a reasonable approach allowing more time to get at the source of the global warming problem.
