    Who are we kidding? Geoengineering will undoubtedly be headed by people supposedly knowledgable in computers that don’t know shit about Geology or Engineering and it will be a disaster.

      What was the context of your project? I’m a mechanical engineer interested in pursuing research into climate change mitigation, although I haven’t started looking into it yet.

          That sounds super interesting but I can imagine there’s at least an NDA involved.

            you could do wind turbine design stuff, that could be cool

      How about neither and we just degrow humanity so we fit sustainably on the planet we’ve remade.

        Guess who’s preventing that?

        You should read The Ministry for the Future to see how they deal with them.

    Inclusive? Didn’t Trump just prohibit the use of that word?

    we really shouldn’t as far as aerosols. How people cannot see that there is no way to know all externalities is beyond me. If it must be done do the solar shade. It is much easier to be backed out.

    It’ll be privately owned and some company will have the entire world in a stranglehold

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
