«All told, the report concludes that «there is significant potential for unanticipated, unmanageable, and regrettable consequences in multiple human dimensions from albedo modification at climate altering scales.»

Not exact matches

In the absence of CO2 reductions, albedo - modification activities would need to be sustained indefinitely and at increasingly large scales to offset warming, with severe negative consequences if they were to be terminated.

In other words, rather than presenting climate engineering, and especially solar radiation management (rebranded «albedo modification»), as an extreme response to be avoided if at all possible, the report normalises climate engineering as one approach among others.

Oliver and I have very different views on the dangers of albedo modification (at least in the next millennium or so); I consider it more a form of geo - vandalism than «geo - poetry» as some of Oliver's fans like to call it.
