Emission reductions are the primary way to address climate change. But if the international community is not able to slash greenhouse gases quickly enough or if leftover emissions persist, then the climate may still need a helping hand.

That is where geoengineering may eventually come into play. Potential solutions include mass tree planting, capturing carbon, making clouds and the oceans more reflective, covering deserts in white plastic and other unconventional technologies.

The scope for temperature reduction is huge but so is the risk of unleashing unpredictable side-effects. Researchers have to proceed with caution in order not to fail in their well-intentioned missions or even make the climate crisis worse.

Lisa J. Graumlich, president of the American Geophysical Union, joins the show to present a new ethical framework the scientific community has put together and explain why its principles are oh so important moving forward.

Enjoy!
