Not enough time for geoengineering to work?

Despite consensus among scientists and global leaders on what has to happen to arrest climate change, agreement on how to bring about the required change remains elusive. This lack of action is making more people look towards geoengineering to provide a solution. In his latest article in the Bulletin for Atomic Scientists, IAGP Principal Investigator and IPCC Lead Author, Piers Forster describes the research and conclusions drawn from IAGP’s examination of various geoengineering technologies over the past four years.
The fact that “none of the proposed technologies really exist on anything other than paper… raises serious concerns as to whether any of them could be developed and deployed at scale within the next few decades”.
This lack of research, together with international governance and legal barriers represent just a few of the major challenges facing the development of geoengineering technologies.
