Abstract

Engineering has changed the world. But global temperatures are rising due to human action and emissions reduction is not sufficient to protect vulnerable people and places from the worst effects of climate change. What if engineering could help cool the planet?

What if we could make more ice? What if clouds could be more reflective? What if GHGs could be captured?

Join us at University of Cambridge’s Department of Engineering for introductory talks on climate engineering – how we might be able to mitigate warming effects while we get emissions down.

This is the first in our series. Hear from engineers seeking answers to the increasingly important question: what if engineering could help cool the planet?
