A new study examines a way to cut global warming in half by managing how much sunlight reaches the Earth.
And there’s the concern that one prominent geoengineering technique — filling the Earth’s stratosphere with special particles such as sulfate that cool the planet by reflecting back some sunlight into space — could trigger other unwanted consequences. Critics say it could, for instance, reduce rainfall in some locations.
A Harvard University study led by Peter Irvine found that geoengineering the climate to cut global warming in half — by managing how much sunlight reaches the Earth — would not lead to disproportionate or unjust impacts around the globe. “The big conclusion is that, with a model that really should do a better job on regional climate, that the level of inequality is really stunningly low,” said David Keith, a Harvard geoengineering researcher who co-wrote the paper.
Ken Caldeira, a scientist at the Carnegie Institution for Science in Stanford, Calif., is another geoengineering expert who was not involved in the study. He said the findings are consistent with other work.
too many possible consequences with this way to prevent climate change , i think we should focus on reduce the carbondiokside level and plant more trees . AndiniMku manajemenB2019
What a bunch of Bull---t!
Too many possible unexpected / catastrophic consequences.
They’re ALREADY doing it. We’ve been trying to talk about this for years...
Keeping your Federal Grants is obviously now come down to ' Rabbit in the hat lies'.
Dumb as AOC logic!!!!
What could possibly go wrong? *Pulls clumps of hair out.
If very smart humans could control climate what would it be? For Europe? For America? For every part of the world. What would the ideal climate be?

Doom&Gloom we're all gonna die, RepAOC said so and in 12 years so why not party like rock stars and enjoy the last 12!
'Geoengineering' - Sounds like a plot from an Austin Powers film.
Insanity. Plain and simple.
Every President since Lyndon Johnson & members have been briefed by the CIA on global warming & its dangers. No more denying time to act responsibly & in partnership.
Riiiiggghhhhtttt... I can't possibly imagine anything going wrong with this plan. For crying out loud what is wrong with people!? Facepalm WaPoStaffAreClueless
Already in progress for years,nothin to see here,just look up.
Every country responsible for that serious issue and america also concerned with that problem
Another study: Trump/GOP shutdown delayed Boeing 737-Max-800 software updates. LindseyGrahamSC, any comment?🤔🤔
