Can Science Fix Climate Change?: A Case Against Climate Engineering (New Human Frontiers) - Softcover
Synopsis
Climate change seems to be an insurmountable problem. Some scientists are now advocating a more direct way of reducing future warming by reflecting more sunlight back to space, creating a thermostat in the sky. Mike Hulme argues against this ‘techno-fix’ and shows why seeking to control global climate this way is undesirable and unattainable.
