As climate change intensifies, the prospect of geoengineering – large-scale interventions to manipulate Earth's climate – is gaining traction. While controversial due to potential unforeseen consequences, some scientists argue that these measures may become necessary this century to mitigate global warming. Discussions are urgently needed to explore the risks and benefits of geoengineering approaches, and to establish guidelines for responsible research and potential deployment. The debate encompasses various techniques, including solar radiation management and carbon dioxide removal, each with its own set of ethical and environmental considerations.
