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.

Yes, as long as there is enough research and approval
@9VGMJSQ2mos2MO
I believe the should find ways to fight against climate change but not spend to much doing it
@9TYFLTG2mos2MO
No, and we should campaign against harmful geo-engineering globally.
@9TRYYND2mos2MO
Yes, but ensure judgement throughout as to whether that level of environmental meddling & manipulation will have any unaccounted for consequences
@9TFQXBL2mos2MO
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.
@9TFCZYH2mos2MO
Only fund research into geoengineering as a last ditch effort to combat climate change.
@9FGSKLL 6mos6MO
No, instead, invest aggressively into sustainable renewable resources like solar, wind, and geothermal
@9MW9BY2 6mos6MO
YES, but only if research is not harming the environment.
