Simulation on Earth Cooling Technologies Fails to Make Progress
An international simulation in London to negotiate methods for cooling the Earth failed to make progress, highlighting difficulties in governing solar radiation modification technologies.
Background
Solar radiation modification (SRM) technologies, which aim to reflect sunlight back into space to cool Earth, are a subject of increasing international discussion. While some view SRM as a potential tool to combat climate change, others raise concerns about its unknown environmental impacts and the complex governance challenges it presents.
