Geoengineering - taking control of our planet's climate Feb 11, 2010

Monday 8 – Tuesday 9 November 2010 Organised by Dr Andy Ridgwell, Professor Chris Freeman and Dr Richard Lampitt

Society seems unable or unwilling to make the drastic reductions in CO2 emissions necessary to avoid dangerous (unacceptable) climate change. A new science ‘Geoengineering’ that until recently would have seemed pure science fiction, promises an alternative way of temporarily regaining control of climate. This meeting considers the state of this new science, and its implications to society.
