A geoengineering experiment aimed at mitigating climate change through cloud manipulation has been halted in Alameda, California, despite scientific backing for its safety. The experiment, led by researchers from theContinue Reading
Researchers, funded by significant financial backing, are now exploring extreme geoengineering methods to combat climate change, despite the risks and uncertainties associated with altering natural processes on such a largeContinue Reading
Geoengineering refers to purposeful attempts to control the climate by reflecting more sunlight back into space, a natural phenomenon that occurs following significant volcanic eruptions. In principle, spraying sulfur andContinue Reading
The United States Congress has directed an investigation into ways that may possibly cool the Earth in order to avert the worst impacts of climate change. Injecting aerosols high inContinue Reading
In a desperate attempt to refreeze the melting ice caps, a group of scientists proposes releasing large amounts of small aerosol compounds from 125 big military planes over the Earth’sContinue Reading
As the effects of climate change spread across the world, many people are taking the idea of geoengineering more seriously than ever. Geoengineering is the process of artificially changing theContinue Reading
The National Academies of Science called for the United States to pursue research into solar geoengineering to cool the Earth’s atmosphere but urged caution given that it could have risky,Continue Reading
As it stands, world leaders are way off track to prevent the worst effects of global climate change. A new report published by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) states thatContinue Reading
