The climate-change experiment
Synopsis
In 2018, Harvard University scientists conducted a solar geoengineering experiment to test the effects of stratospheric aerosol injection on climate change.
Synopsis
In 2018, a team of scientists from Harvard University initiated a solar geoengineering experiment aimed at mitigating climate change by reflecting sunlight back into space. The project involves launching a small balloon payload to an altitude of approximately 20 kilometers, where it releases less than a kilogram of materials to assess their impact on the stratosphere. With weather-related disasters increasing fourfold since 1917, this innovative approach represents a significant shift in climate intervention strategies, moving towards active solutions rather than passive responses.
