‘Grandfather’ of climate science Wallace Smith Broecker gave one last warning before death

“If we are going to prevent the planet from warming up another couple of degrees, we are going to have to go to geo-engineering,” he said. Failing to act could bring “many more surprises in the greenhouse” called Earth.

GEOENGINEERING IS ALREADY HAPPENING

“Accidental Geoengineering” with Ship Tracks and Contrails

“The emissions and the climate change that we’re causing with that is already a massive experiment on our world that we don’t really know the outcome of. So I don’t think we should start another set of experiments and go into geoengineering. I think we should get our act together and reduce our emissions.”

Engineering the Earth - Interview with David Keith

Keith is a co-director of Harvard’s Solar Geoengineering Research Program, a cross-disciplinary collaboration examining approaches to and policy surrounding solar geoengineering. He leads a group that researches solar geoengineering, a technique that aims to reflect some of the sun’s energy to mitigate global temperature increases. In 2019, Keith, in collaboration with Chemistry Professor Frank N. Keutsch, may become one of the first to execute a controlled experiment in geoengineering.
