The research adds to the mounting evidence that geoengineering is a false climate solution with dangerous results.
A study published Friday found that a cloud engineering technique designed to cool parts of the western United States could inadvertently stoke heatwaves from North America to Europe, underscoring why many scientists reject geoengineering as a false climate solution.
that MCB “can be very effective for the U.S. West Coast if done now, but it may be ineffective there in the future and could cause heatwaves in Europe.”The study’s authors said the paper’s findings are especially troubling given the dearth of international MCB regulation. Regional marine cloud brightening in the North Pacific reduces extreme heat over the Western U.S. under present-day conditions but becomes ineffective under mid-century warming.
