We must not let geoengineering be shaped behind closed doors. Climate justice demands an inclusive approach ...

Vast sums of private and public money are now chasing a once-fringe idea: deliberately reflecting a slice of sunlight back ...

Solar geoengineering, a bunch of techniques that aim to mask some effects of climate change by blocking sunlight, isn’t on the agenda for this month’s COP30, the U.N. climate conference. It ought to ...

As climate targets slip out of reach and heat records fall year after year, a once-fringe idea is moving toward center stage: deliberately dimming the sunlight that reaches Earth to cool the planet.

A Royal Society report outlines the state of the science but makes no concrete policy recommendations. Futuristic sun-reflecting technology could be effective at cooling the planet, says the United ...

Reusable rockets that deliver sun-reflecting aerosols to the top of the stratosphere could cool the planet – with fewer negative side effects than lower-altitude solar geoengineering. But a fleet of ...

Outside actors are increasingly looking to test speculative climate fixes such as solar geoengineering in African countries. But this potentially dangerous course of action would divert financing and ...

AEI fellow Dr. Roger Pielke offered recommendations for regulation and oversight of "weather modification activity" at a hearing Tuesday titled, “Playing God with the Weather — a Disastrous Forecast." ...
