Harvard University's Solar Geoengineering Research Program

Harvard University's geoengineering-research-program">Solar Geoengineering Research Program explores methods to reflect sunlight away from Earth to combat climate change. This research examines techniques like injecting aerosols into the stratosphere or brightening clouds to reduce global warming. The program aims to understand the potential benefits, risks, and ethical considerations of these methods. By studying solar geoengineering, researchers hope to inform policy decisions and foster discussions about its role in addressing climate impacts while ensuring that it complements existing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
