A Case for Climate Engineering
book which is much less good prose, but at least it's short.
Book •
In 'A Case for Climate Engineering,' David Keith presents a concise overview of the potential and challenges of climate engineering technologies.
The book explores the scientific, technical, and ethical aspects of deliberately manipulating the Earth's climate to counteract the effects of greenhouse gas emissions.
Keith assesses various climate engineering approaches, including solar radiation management and carbon dioxide removal, discussing their feasibility and potential risks.
He argues for the need for careful research and development of these technologies while acknowledging the uncertainties and governance challenges they pose.
By providing a balanced and accessible introduction to the topic, 'A Case for Climate Engineering' encourages informed discussion and critical thinking about the role of technology in addressing climate change.
The book serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of climate engineering.
