What could go wrong with plans to, say, block sunlight with thousands of high-altitude balloons?

A conversation about the risks and potential benefits of re-engineering the climate is urgently needed.

As if inexorably, the Keeling curve measuring carbon dioxide emissions continues to ratchet up. At the same time, annual global average temperatures continue to increase. This year looks set to become the warmest for millennia. Paltry efforts to curb fossil fuel use, to prevent the problem of climate change at source, have stalled or are swallowed by ever-growing energy demand. Net zero resembles a distant mirage.
