Einige Menschen glauben, wir könnten mit #Geoengineering die Erderhitzung einfach stoppen. Eine Studie zeigt, die bekannten Geoengineering-Ansätze bringen kaum Vorteile, bergen aber enorme Risiken und verschwenden jede Menge Geld. Wir brauchen konsequenten #Klimaschutz, nicht technisches Wunschdenken! ️https://www.mdr.de/wissen/umwelt-klima/geoengineering-arktis-antarktis-fuen-ideen-null-nutzen-100.html

Oh look, a new ARS piece talking about this stuff!Predictably the scientists quoted will only accept the reduction in carbon emission as the only sustainable solution. (And they're right!)「The assessment shows that “no current geoengineering idea passes an objective and comprehensive test regarding its use in the coming decades,”」Yes dear sherlocks, but we do want to slow down *all* the 'engines' of the negative feedback loop, right? Even if polar krill populations will face hard times for a decade or few.Once we kickstart the runaway feedback loop and begin releasing the massive 'fossilized' arctic CO₂ and methane reserves we humans simply can't put the plug back in.https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/115174558308289672https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/09/geoengineering-will-not-save-humankind-from-climate-change/?utm_brand=arstechnica&utm_social-type=owned&utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social#globalwarming #climatechange #arctic #antarctic #geoengineering
