Stratospheric aerosol injection
Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) is an idea to lower the global temperature by dispersing tiny particles in the stratosp...
Global Temperature Change with and without Human Influence
Climate models show that observed warming can only be reproduced in climate model simulations if human actions, including greenhouse gas emissions, are included.
Cirrus cloud thinning
Cirrus cloud thinning (CCT) is an idea to thin high, wispy cirrus clouds that trap a lot of heat. While this approach might w...
An overview of sunlight reflection methods
Sunlight reflection methods (SRM) are hypothetical approaches to lower global temperatures by increasing the amount of sunlight reflected to space.
Ocean acidification and marine life
Effects of acidic waters on the shells of pteropods, tiny marine mollusks:
Sunlight reflection methods
Sunlight reflection methods (SRM) are hypothetical approaches to lower global temperatures by increasing the amount of sunlight reflected to space.
Acid rain is declining after pollution cuts
Emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide are the leading contributors to acid rain. Emissions of both peaked around t...
Surface Albedo
Reflectivity, also known as albedo, ranges from 0 to 100%. Highly reflective surfaces have an albedo closer to 100% while surfaces that absorb sunlight have an albedo closer to zero.
Marine cloud brightening
Marine cloud brightening (MCB) is an idea to enhance the reflectivity of low-lying clouds over the oceans. MCB may be able to...
