While he says categorically that the prospect of geoengineering should never provide polluters or governments a «get out of jail free card» to avoid their absolute duty to drastically cut CO2 emissions, he maintains that «climate change could actually be reversed with the help of geoengineering, and it would be far simpler, safer and cheaper than trying to adapt to ever worsening climate change, and sea level rise to boot.»
