Climate Geoengineering Research Governance

Climate geoengineering research governance involves creating rules and frameworks to guide the responsible development and testing of technologies aimed at modifying Earth's climate, such as reflecting sunlight or removing carbon dioxide. This ensures scientific progress is conducted safely, ethically, and transparently, minimizing risks and addressing potential impacts on the environment and society. Governance includes international cooperation, ethical considerations, risk assessment, and public engagement, aiming to balance innovation with precaution to prevent unintended consequences and ensure that geoengineering is pursued responsibly.
