"Some scientists advocate another solution: Apply new technologies to correct the harms of the old. Using technology to engineer the climate itself, these experts claim, could be the best way to ensure humanity continues to thrive and survive on this planet. The trouble is that large-scale engineering of this sort has never been attempted, and critics worry about the consequences of getting it wrong. Want a little insight into this debate? Here are some of the interesting ethical questions surrounding climate engineering."

Dutch newspaper article. "The world is struggling to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. At the same time, a new technological wonder is finding more and more people. Geo-engineering - the large-scale manipulation of natural systems on earth - has become popular as a way to eliminate the negative effects of climate change." (Google translate)

Response to New Scientist article. "Their theory of bleached corals is that when the sea is too warm, corals expel the tiny algae living in their tissues, which are supposed to feed them through photosynthesis. But then the corals turn white and starve to death. So basically, the researchers have a one-track mind to simply keep temperatures down."

"Admittedly, the movie is a fantasy set in a deeply unrealistic near-future. But coming on the heels of one of the most extreme hurricane seasons in recent history, it’s tempting to imagine a world where we could regulate the weather. Despite a long history of interest in weather modification, controlling the climate is, to be frank, unattainable with current technology. But underneath the frippery of “Geostorm,” is there a valid message about the promises and perils of planetary management?"
