Solar geoengineering could halve the economic cost of climate change, but stopping it would cause temperatures to rebound ...
A Royal Society report outlines the state of the science but makes no concrete policy recommendations. Futuristic sun-reflecting technology could be effective at cooling the planet, says the United ...
Reusable rockets that deliver sun-reflecting aerosols to the top of the stratosphere could cool the planet – with fewer negative side effects than lower-altitude solar geoengineering. But a fleet of ...
Outside actors are increasingly looking to test speculative climate fixes such as solar geoengineering in African countries. But this potentially dangerous course of action would divert financing and ...
Solar geoengineering, a bunch of techniques that aim to mask some effects of climate change by blocking sunlight, isn’t on the agenda for this month’s COP30, the U.N. climate conference. It ought to ...
The potential role of solar geoengineering strategies in addressing global warming is a matter of current scientific and societal debate. Some strategies could reduce the surface temperature of Earth, ...
Geoengineering – the deliberate, large-scale manipulation of the Earth’s climate to counteract global warming – mostly exists in computer models, academic journals, and policy debates. Despite its ...
