This year, a trial is being run to see if using technology to deflect the sun could help cool the planet. Meanwhile, another scientist hopes to spray sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere to reduce global temperatures. These are just some of the innovative trials taking place to curb the effects of global warming until greater decarbonization is seen. The question now is whether these geoengineering, delay-oriented technologies will have a significant effect on global warming, as a mid-term control measure, or whether they present a major risk to…
