I may talk out of my arse, but my understanding is that the majority of the heat is coming from the inner planet core which can't cool to space due to the insulating blanket of CO2, not from illumination from the sun (something like an order of magnitude more)

so nothing will be practically solved with a sun heat shield, we need to find a way to break the CO2 somewhat quickly

but then we have the same challenge here on Earth....
