If you were to be tasked with implementing a package of measures designed to address the issue of climate change, what procedures would you put in place?

Would you like to see strategies adopted that would attempt to intervene with the mechanisms leading to climate change, such as the physical extraction of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere or the implementation of schemes designed to reduce the amount of heat being received from the Sun.
