Experts call on the UN for a Solar Geoengineering Non-Use Agreement

January 21, 2022

A group of academics from around the world are calling for a non-use agreement on solar geoengineering.

Their petition takes the stance that “solar geoengineering deployment at planetary scale cannot be fairly and effectively governed in the current system of international institutions. It also poses unacceptable risk if ever implemented as part of future climate policy. A strong political message from governments, the United Nations and civil society is urgently needed.”
