However, existing data also reveal important limits to the range of CO2 impacts that SWCE could ameliorate; for example, ongoing ocean acidification would not be affected, and some categories of
climate emergency scenario might prove unresponsive to SWCE.
For example, many have claimed that, at some point in the future, deploying geoengineering might be better than allowing emissions - driven
climate change to occur unabated — perhaps because geoengineering could avert some
climate emergency — and so geoengineering techniques should be researched now in order to be ready for that possible
scenario.
