Climate change is creating impacts that are widespread and severe — and in many cases irreversible — for individuals, communities, economies, and ecosystems around the world. 2020 was one of the three ...
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 ...
Blotting out the sun might not fix climate change, but it could pause the warming process. The idea of using planes to “geoengineer” the climate by spreading sunlight-reflecting aerosols throughout ...
This story was produced in partnership with the Pulitzer Center’s Ocean Reporting Network. A “civil war” is brewing in polar science. As climate change rapidly melts Earth’s ice, sides are being drawn ...
On April 22, The Guardian reported that the United Kingdom’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency is set to launch a series of outdoor experiments using “solar radiation management,” or SRM, to ...
In my weekly column for World Politics Review, I examine the prospect of altering Earth’s climate using geoengineering techniques, as well as the governance implications of such large-scale ...
The top scientist for the Geneva-based United Nations Environmental Programme said the organization is exploring the topic of climate engineering because “growing concerns about the lack of global ...
Ship engines spew particles that drift into the lower atmosphere, creating linear, reflective clouds called ship tracks, which can cool the ocean. FSU research asks whether the phenomenon could ...
