Solar geoengineering

Argument for delaying solar geoengineering research.1

Solar geoengineering is not feasible for the next few decades.

• Solar geoengineering poses major governance challenges.
• These governance challenges are only likely to be overcome in at least 50 years’ time.

1. Solar geoengineering research is a moral hazard, and research might uncover dangerous weather manipulation methods.
2. Given this risk and given that we can delay research without obvious costs, there is a good case for delaying solar geoengineering research at least for a few decades.
