This claim appears to be based on a claim that Bill Gates is behind a project to block the sun's rays. In fact, the research Gates helped fund is extremely small-scale, conceptual research. It's trying to understand what large-scale solutions to climate change might look like. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/04/23/fact-check-bill-gates-not-trying-block-suns-rays/7310134002/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1470859207847120903

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
