Private firms are making plans to cool the planet by releasing reflective particles high into the atmosphere, an approach known as solar geoengineering or solar radiation modification (SRM). With a ...
SRM has even found a research base in the Ivy League. Thanks to Harvard’s Solar Geoengineering Research Program, founded in 2017, the first steps toward implementation may soon float above the United ...
Geoengineering, involving large-scale interventions in Earth's systems, is being explored as a climate change solution. Methods are divided into carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and solar radiation ...
A battle over how to protect the planet from overheating is heating up. Academics are coming out of the woodwork, forming coalitions, issuing declarations. A subdued debate over the merits versus ...
As the climate crisis advances, geoengineering — intentionally modifying Earth systems on a large scale to cool the planet or store additional carbon — is increasingly a hot topic. But an intense ...
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) has released a 5-year research plan for solar radiation management (SRM), also known as solar geoengineering. The plan is a response to a ...
Geoengineering experiments like cloud brightening and sulfur dioxide injection are being explored to cool the planet. These technologies raise concerns about unintended consequences and could ...
