As the Earth inches closer to 2°C of average warming above pre-industrial levels, some scientists aren’t just interested in how to cut emissions. They’re also interested in how to buy the planet more ...
Once climate engineering is deployed, countries may be more likely to blame climate engineering for extreme events such as hurricanes, floods, and droughts, regardless of the evidence. The only known ...
A study reports that scattering sunlight-reflecting particles in the atmosphere -- a theoretical form of climate engineering known as 'stratospheric aerosol injection' -- has potential to slow rapid ...
Shivani Dharanipragada ‘25, is a computer science and economics major and was a 2022-23 environmental ethics fellow with the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics. Views are her own. As Earth’s climate ...
(via Sabine Hossenfelder) Climate engineering is a last ditch effort to protect humans from climate change – and we’re getting closer every day. Unfortunately, attempts of scientists to study the ...
Launching reflective clouds and locking up ocean-caught carbon to cool the Earth may sound like science fiction, but both geoengineering approaches are part of a futuristic world that is already here, ...

Fed up with a lack of action on climate change, some students are researching dimming the sun despite the pushback from other scientists.
Climate change is affecting the types of plant varieties we can cultivate, as well as how and where we can do so. A new collection of articles in the journal PLOS Biology explores the twin challenges ...
Even though the people of Central America have contributed very little to global warming, it is a region particularly vulnerable to climate disruption, with Honduras, Nicaragua, and Guatemala ranked ...
