Just stop with the #geoengineering bullshit.
We’re not going to technology our way out of this one; if we had the collective intelligence & political will to pull it off we wouldn’t be in this mess to begin with!

Ein in Vancouver ansässiges Startup namens Skyward Wildfire hat jetzt vorgeschlagen, Wettermodifikationen vorzunehmen, um katastrophale Brände wie in Kanada 2023 zu verhindern. Das Startup hat dafür gerade in einer Finanzierungsrunde mehrere Millionen US-Dollar eingesammelt. (+)

If we’re going to do geoengineering/SRM the first thing we need to do is have a computer model showing how it would work where scientists agree the benefits outweigh the costs.
It seems most people interested in the topic aren’t actually interested in doing that work and skip straight to the part where they pollute the environment with ballons filled with a highly toxic, corrosive pollutant

Can we refreeze the Arctic?
It’s not news that we’re losing Arctic ice fast: since the 1970s, Arctic summer sea ice volume has shrunk by at least 75%.
What you may not know is how much our climate depends on it.

One of the reasons for the #heatwaves we are experiencing is, paradoxically, that Europe has implemented policies against #microparticle #pollution: our air is cleaner than in China or the US, where a portion of the sun’s rays are blocked by #aerosols. This clearly demonstrates the dangers of #geoengineering, because if we start, we’d be condemned to continue forever.
Furthermore, the reduction of air travel could further worsen the situation for Europe, as we already saw during COVID-19.

Can #geoengineering blunt #ElNiño’s fury?
Simulations suggest marine #cloudbrightening could weaken the #climate pattern’s extremes
Adding aerosols to the atmosphere over a particular patch of the #Pacific Ocean can increase and brighten clouds in the region creating a cooling effect. New computer simulations show this can trigger atmospheric changes that might reduce the strength of an El Niño event — and #weather extremes that come along with it.

The season of #HowWeSurvive I’m listening to is about geo-engineering. One of the methods of cooling the planet is injection of sulfur into the atmosphere. Ideally a lot higher in the atmosphere than last night. I wonder if today will be cooler it’s pretty thick…

With Europe and the US in the grip of atmospheric blocking events / “heat domes”, I’ve seen renewed interest in geoengineering/SRM.
A quick reminder that despite a lot of enthusiasm among laypeople, climate scientists are generally sour on the idea.
A very important detail people don’t seem to grasp is that while geoengineering/SRM could help lower the *mean* temperature, it could actually make extreme heatwaves / “heat domes” worse by disrupting the global circulation of air

"People spend a lot of time thinking back to the height of the climate movement in 2019, the kind of Extinction Rebellion era, the sort of Fridays for Future era, when you had massive movements on the street, which – as controversial as they may have been – significantly moved the dial in terms of people's perspectives on the urgency of the climate crisis."
"It's really important to be communicating climate change as directly and intimately related to all the other challenges that people are politically animated by."

#Geoengineering is the most intellectually bankrupt of all proposed “fixes” for climate-system breakdown, and I resent every iota of energy that must now – in the face of the usual day-late-and-a-trillion-dollars-short tech-nerd stannery – be expended on explaining why and how. This piece in the Graun does an admirably concise job of explaining the case against.

#Geoengineering:
Imagine two ludicrously large sunshades in Earth orbit, sun-synchronous I think, which tumble* so that as the come over each polar icecap they are flat on to the Sun, blocking some heat, and in the rest of their orbit they go through edge-on and don't block much.The polar regions heating rapidly is our larger problem, so maintaining the chill round the poles is attractive.
* Flap flutter shutter, whatever

After reading yet another article on SRM/geoengineering I think we really need to talk about what people who have studied it in computer models found:
It would disrupt storm systems and lead to a more stagnant atmosphere with less circulation, causing more atmospheric blocking events / “heat domes”. So the opposite effect of what’s desired.
That’s if it’s actually done in a coordinated manner. Studies on doing it in an uncoordinated manner have shown it can heat up your neighbors.

Hacking the #atmosphere: #Geoengineering gets a reality check
Concept came from volcanoes. Massive eruptions in the past have reduced temperature worldwide by blasting sulfur dioxide and other compounds into the stratosphere, where they convert into sunlight-scattering particles. Hundreds of studies in recent decades have suggested human attempt to mimic this mechanism would work quickly and efficiently—at least within confines of #climate models.

Project SATAN in the UK launched a balloon releasing SO2 into the stratosphere in 2022.
Now ARIA has billions funding outdoor experiments. Bill Gates funds 12% of global SRM research. The WEF is setting ethics frameworks before any law exists.
But it would take 16,000 years for CO2 to reach harmful levels at current rates. No law governs this. Full investigation:

#StormWall is a proposed space-based defense system designed to temporarily fortify Earth's magnetosphere against damaging space weather, such as solar flares and geomagnetic storms. By releasing specific chemical elements at the edge of Earth's protective magnetic bubble, the system aims to deflect harmful solar energy safely past the planet.
