The failure of world leaders to reach key agreements at Cop27 has spurred scientists’ efforts to develop radical methods to limit global warming. Geoengineering is “one of the most controversial and ...
Solar geoengineering -- putting aerosols into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight and reduce global warming -- is not a fix-all for climate change but it could be one of several tools to manage climate ...
Global warming poses a great threat to our society, and it will continue unless a deep and rapid reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is implemented. One alternative way to counteract some of the ...
Over the Northern Hemisphere’s summer, the world’s temperatures hovered near 1.5° C above pre-industrial temperatures, and the catastrophic weather events that ensued provided a preview of what might ...
Could blocking the sun help reverse climate change? Scientists say maybe, thanks to solar geoengineering. The emerging solution is designed to cool the Earth and prevent catastrophic warming. Despite ...
We are at the throw-the-kitchen-sink stage of our climate change crisis as researchers, backed by big money, are increasingly researching drastic, large-scale geoengineering methods that were once ...
A research document published on the White House website reveals the Biden administration is open to studying how to block sunlight to save the Earth from climate change. The congressionally mandated ...
In an unprecedented move, the UK government is set to give the green light to experiments aimed at diming the Sun as a potential solution to combat climate change. The Advanced Research and Invention ...
