Geoengineering refers to the deliberate large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system to counteract climate change, such as by reflecting sunlight, increasing precipitation, or removing CO2 from the atmosphere. Proponents argue that geoengineering could provide innovative solutions to global warming. Opponents argue that it is risky, unproven, and could have unforeseen negative consequences.
@9VGMJSQ2wks2W
I believe the should find ways to fight against climate change but not spend to much doing it
@9TYFLTG4wks4W
No, and we should campaign against harmful geo-engineering globally.
@9TRYYND4wks4W
Yes, but ensure judgement throughout as to whether that level of environmental meddling & manipulation will have any unaccounted for consequences
@ISIDEWITH1mo1MO
If you could control the weather for a day, what changes would you make and why?
@9TNXGHM1mo1MO
Make it 24 degrees with some clouds in the sky so it's nice and warm but at the same time not too hot.
@9TFQXBL1mo1MO
No, simply, known solutions to climate change should be utilized instead if spending time and money on new research that may or may not get used.
@9TFCZYH1mo1MO
Only fund research into geoengineering as a last ditch effort to combat climate change.
@9FGSKLL 5mos5MO
No, instead, invest aggressively into sustainable renewable resources like solar, wind, and geothermal
@9MW9BY2 5mos5MO
YES, but only if research is not harming the environment.
@9ML75L25mos5MO
Yes but in a way that will not allow lenience in companies to increase their carbon footprint.
@9MKYHZ75mos5MO
Yes, as long as its proven to work and not have any detrimental effects and is regulated by the government
@9SLJBJV2mos2MO
At what point is the research that has already happened be enough
@9RC89843mos3MO
This is a last ditch approach... we need to decarbonize our economy, not allow oil companies to make excuses
@9QZCYDN3mos3MO
That's not the main focus that we should be working on right now, so either no funding at all or maybe small amounts for the future
@9W4QTY62 days2D
Yes, as long as there is enough research and approval
