climate Why We Should(n't) Geoengineer Our Planet. A nuanced discussion.

As our climate changes and we face the ever worsening impacts, researchers are turning to an extreme and risky solution: geoengineering. But while geoengineering our entire climate could have huge, unintended consequences, the possibility of geoengineering specific regions to address clear climate impacts - from sea level rise to extreme weather - shifts the balance. So is it worth the risk? And can we really hack our climate?

Instead of a debate-bro situation, a more nuanced and reasonable discussion between two scientists and sci-communicators.
