✍️ The UK government is funding real-world geoengineering experiments to test sun-reflecting particles, brightening reflective clouds, and pumping water on sea ice to thicken it, in an effort to temporarily cool the planet and give more time to tackle climate change.
👉 The UK government is funding real-world geoengineering experiments to test sun-reflecting particles, brightening reflective clouds, and pumping water on sea ice to thicken it. 👉 The programme aims to provide critical missing scientific data to help understand the potential impacts of geoengineering on the climate and ecosystems. 👉 The experiments will be small-scale and rigorously assessed before going ahead. 👉 The programme will also assess the feasibility of space reflectors and model the impacts of geoengineering on climate and ecosystems, especially in developing countries.
