DG Reading Club: Geoengineering

 

Gernot Wagner, co-author of Climate Shock: The Economic Consequences of a Hotter Planet, talks to us about how geo-engineering projects – including the industrial removal of carbon dioxide from the air and the spraying of aerosols in the stratosphere – could be our best hope of cooling the planet. Including:

  • How much it would cost to save civilisation
  • The dramatic consequences if geo-engineering goes wrong
  • Covid-19’s impact on the environment
