Experts at odds: debating geoengineering
What should be permissible in the race to limit global warming, and where do we draw the line on geoengineering? Experts engage in a frank discussion of climate interventions—from carbon dioxide removal to albedo modification—grounded in the latest science. The session probes decision-making under uncertainty, the role of international norms and governance, and the safeguards needed to avoid moral hazard while keeping options on the table.
