A study reports that scattering sunlight-reflecting particles in the atmosphere -- a theoretical form of climate engineering known as 'stratospheric aerosol injection' -- has potential to slow rapid ...
Once climate engineering is deployed, countries may be more likely to blame climate engineering for extreme events such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts, regardless of the evidence. The only known ...
Climate change is already fueling dangerous heat waves, raising sea levels and transforming the oceans. Even if countries meet their pledges to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that are driving ...
For decades, “geoengineering” was a forbidden subject in climate circles. Talking about adjusting the Earth’s energy balance by, for example, using mirrors, white roofs or aerosols to reflect solar ...
(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Climate engineering is a last ditch effort to protect humans from climate change – and we’re getting closer every day. Unfortunately, attempts of scientists to study the ...
As the Earth inches closer to 2°C of average warming above pre-industrial levels, some scientists aren’t just interested in how to cut emissions. They’re also interested in how to buy the planet more ...
