The Measure of a Fog: Geoengineering April 5, 2019 / activist360 / Leave a comment We humans have proven our ability to affect an entire planet’s temperature, albeit unintentionally. Does this mean we have the ability to control that temperature? That’s the crucial question behind geoengineering — and it’s one that we will likely have to grapple with given our inability, so far, to curb carbon dioxide emissions by other means.
Will There be ‘Winners and Losers’ with Solar Geoengineering? April 2, 2019 / activist360 / Leave a comment Halving global warming with solar geoengineering could ‘offset tropical storm risk’ Engineering the climate to reflect away sunlight could halve global warming and offset the risk of increases in tropical storms, new research suggests. Carbon Brief spoke with Dr Pete Irvine, who led the study, about his findings here.
