Synopsis

For several years, technologies that are supposed to reverse the consequences of anthropogenic climate change have been planned in the climate protection plans of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. It is no longer just about reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases and adapting to the now unavoidable consequences of climate change: In order to prevent the worst, projects are developed for a "Plan B" with which either the sun "shades" for cooling the earth, or the already emitted carbon dioxide from the air is developed. . Climate engineering, i.e. tinkering with the climate, has become indispensable according to official announcements. This development should be urgently discussed in the climate justice movement! Annette Schlemm is about a socio-political assessment of these projects - and this leads to strong doubts about their meaningfulness from the perspective of global justice. It is time for us to intervene critically, otherwise new power structures are installed to alleged "save the planet", which are much more dangerous than the technological means used.
