* GEO-ENGINEERING * Overshoot Commission calls for research into solar geoengineering
Governments should expand research into controversial solar geoengineering, while placing a moratorium on large-scale experiments outdoors, a panel of leaders has recommended. The Overshoot Commission was set up last year to examine ways of reducing risks if and when global heating surpasses 1.5C.

Governments should place a moratorium on efforts to geoengineer the planet’s climate, as greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise and the climate crisis takes hold, a panel of global experts has urged.

While hundreds of scientists around the world are urgently advocating for a non-use agreement for atmospheric sun-dimming experiments, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy may be looking in a different direction.
Geo-EngineeringWarum Technologien in der Klimadebatte wichtiger werden
Die Welt hat sich bis heute um rund 1,1 Grad erwärmt. Die Folgen und Risiken durch Wetterextreme sind grösser als in der Vergangenheit angenommen. Die Erreichung der Ziele des Pariser Klimaabkommens liegt in weiter Ferne. Die Welt wird wohl schon in der kommenden Dekade die 1,5-Grad-Marke reissen.

Geo-EngineeringThe Overshoot Commission is talking about solar geoengineering. Not everyone thinks it should
When a group of leaders set out to discuss how to reduce the risks of overshooting the 1.5C climate goal, they were asked to examine one of the most controversial technologies to cool the planet: solar geoengineering.
Geo-EngineeringComment la géo-ingénierie solaire veut limiter le réchauffement
Beaucoup d'experts admettent aujourd'hui qu'il ne sera pas possible de limiter le réchauffement climatique à 1,5 degré comme le veut l'Accord de Paris (lire encadré). Faute d'y parvenir, des géants de la tech essaient une autre approche en tentant de manipuler le climat.

Asien Geo-Engineering* GEO-ENGINEERING * How to think about solar radiation management
One of the more uncomfortable truths about climate change is that temperatures are going to rise for the next 30 to 40 years no matter what we do, just based on carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere and the reduction of aerosol pollutants that are now shielding us from some of the worst of it.
Geo-Engineering* GEO-ENGINEERING * 60 Scientists Call for Accelerated Research Into ‘Solar Radiation Management’ That Could Temporarily Mask Global Warming
As the planet’s fever inches close to the critical 1.5 degree Celsius target for limiting warming, “the impacts of climate change grow and become more tangible (and) there will be increasing pressure to reduce climate warming” using solar radiation management, the scientists wrote.
Geo-EngineeringMexico plans to ban solar geoengineering after rogue experiment
Mexico announced this Tuesday a new set of measures to ban solar geoengineering experiments in the country, after a US startup began releasing sulfur particles into the atmosphere in the northern state of Baja California.

Geoengineering refers to deliberate efforts to manipulate the climate by reflecting more sunlight back into space, mimicking a natural process that occurs in the aftermath of large volcanic eruptions.

Alors que les efforts climatiques des Etats restent insuffisants, une poignée de personnalités veulent lever le tabou sur la géoingénerie solaire. Une approche jugée trop risquée par de nombreux scientifiques. On fait le point sur cette controverse.
Geo-EngineeringAs 1.5C overshoot looms, a high-level commission will ask: what next?
The chances of keeping global temperature rise below 1.5C, the toughest goal of the Paris Agreement, are increasingly slim. “Well below 2C” is a stretch. Yet there has been little discussion at an international level on how to handle “overshoot” of those goals.

Countries must urgently agree a way of controlling and regulating attempts to geoengineer the climate, and consider whether to set a moratorium on such efforts, as the danger of global heating exceeding the 1.5C threshold increases, the former head of the World Trade Organisation has warned.
