What is geoengineering? It’s a broad term for a variety of climate interventions on the earth system. We are talking about solar radiation modification (SRM)--how we can modify the amount of solar radiation coming into the earth’s atmosphere.
What does science and policy say about it? For a long time, most scientists and policy-makers have advised great caution about “hacking the planet.” This is for both scientific and geopolitical/societal reasons (not knowing the second, third, fourth-order effects to the system or neighbors). There are also large ethical questions raised with manipulating the earth’s atmosphere.
Changing perspectives…. In 2021, the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) published “Reflecting Sunlight: Recommendations for Solar Geoengineering Research and Research Governance” advising changes. In June 2023, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) adopted many of these recommendations and published the “Congressionally Mandated Research Plan and an Initial Research Governance Framework Related to Solar Radiation Modification (SRM).”
The change: The motivation for understanding the full range of climate interventions has gotten stronger as the planet continues to warm and mitigation/decarbonization strategies may need to be augmented—hence the need for research.
The message of the OSTP report is one of comparing risks:
“The potential risks and benefits to human health and well-being associated with scenarios involving the use of SRM need to be considered relative to the risks and benefits associated with plausible trajectories of ongoing climate change not involving SRM. This “risk vs. risk” framing, along with cultural, moral, and ethical considerations, would contribute to the necessary context in which policymakers can consider the potential suitability of SRM as a component of climate policy.”
Reflecting sunlight my ass, they are magnifying sunlight to create the illusion of climate change. I work outside, and watch it happen all too often. It's a nasty feeling heat that is not in line with nature.
I have been doing what I do for twenty-five years. This last year, I had to wear gloves just about every day to handle my tools and materials. I barely even owned a pair of gloves for the prior twenty-four. I loath those bastards who fly the planes. I wish for them to fall from the sky with all of my might each and every time I watch them. They have stolen my blue skies and beautiful clouds. I sincerely hope that one day they, and those who control the, pay for their crimes against the planet.
I have been ridiculed for years for my belief in chemtrails. I've learned to set back and watch the naysayers as they wait to be told by MSM they do exist.
